  • A video showing a temple bathed in lights is viral on social media with captions falsely claiming that the video shows the renovated look of Kashi Vishwanath temple in Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh.

A report published in The Hindu on November 12, 2021 said that the project will connect the temple with the ghats of river Ganga. The project comprises a paved walkway around 320 metres long and 20 metres wide. The video is viral in this backdrop. Bharatiya Janata Party MP Sudarshan Bhagat shared the video on his verified Facebook page with a Hindi caption translating to 'This is Varanasi's (Kashi) Vishwanath temple. This is what development looks like and this is why we say if Modi is there, it's possible'.

The video has been shared by multiple Facebook users calling the temple Kashi Vishwanath. Fact Check BOOM watched the video closely and checked its reply section. We found several users commenting that the video shows Somnath temple in Gujarat. Taking cue, we performed an internet search with related keywords and found a tweet from the official Twitter handle of Gujarat tourism which had pictures of a temple which resembles the one seen in the viral video. The Gujarat Tourism tweet on April 5, 2018 reads 'Glimpses of the magical 3D projection mapping based light and sound show at Somnath Temple near Veraval. The show narrates the rich history of the temple in Amitabh Bachchan's baritone voice'.
