A video showing a mob assaulting a man wearing a yellow turban is being widely shared on social media platforms. Those who shared the video claim that it showed an attack on Punjab CM and Aam Aadmi Party leader Bhagwant Mann in public. Newschecker found the claim to be untrue.

Multiple X and Facebook users shared the 42-second-long footage claiming to show “Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann thrashed by people.”
