A video is being shared on social media claiming it as recent visuals of pro-Hindu activists throwing a Muslim woman out of a bus for wearing a Hijab. This video shows a burqa-clad woman being thrown out from a running bus. Let’s verify the claim made in the post.
Claim: Video of pro-Hindu activists pushing a Muslim woman out of a bus for wearing a Hijab.
Fact: This video shows an old incident that took place in the Rohitpur area in Keraniganj, Bangladesh. In March 2021, on the Dhaka-Nawabganj Road, a speech-impaired woman was thrown out from a bus for not paying the bus fare. Bangladesh’s Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) team had immediately arrested the bus driver and cleaner involved in this incident. The video shared in the post is from Bangladesh and has nothing to do with the ongoing Hijab row in India. Hence, the claim made in the post is FALSE.
On reverse image search of the screenshots in the video, a video with similar visuals was found published by the ‘Dhaka Post’ news channel on 08 March 2021. ‘Dhaka Post’ reported in the video that a speech-impaired woman was thrown out of a bus for not paying the bus fare. This incident reportedly took place at Rohitpur area on the Dhaka-Nawabganj Road in Keraniganj, Bangladesh. A few other Bangladesh news channels have also shared this video with a similar description. They can be seen here and here.
Bangladesh’s Rapid Action Battalion (RAB) team immediately arrested the driver and helper of the ‘N Malik’ transport bus for pushing a woman out from the running bus. RAB reportedly seized the bus from which the woman was pushed out. Reporting the details of the incident, several Bangladesh news websites published articles in March 2021. They can be seen here, here, and here. From all these pieces of evidence, it can be concluded that the video shared in the post is from Bangladesh and not related to the ongoing Hijab row in India.
To sum it up, an old video from Bangladesh is shared as Hindu activists pushing a Muslim woman out of a bus for wearing Hijab.
