  • Amid the ongoing 2024 Lok Sabha Elections, a video showing a man repeatedly casting votes on behalf of other people is being circulated as a recent incident from Hyderabad. What are users claiming?: An X (formerly Twitter) premium user shared the video with a caption that said, "A video is going viral claiming that a person has cast everyone's votes in Hyderabad's Bahadur Pura." Are these claims true?: Neither is this video recent nor is it related to the ongoing general elections. It could be traced back to February 2022 and was reportedly captured during the municipal elections in West Bengal. How did we find that out?: Using the help of InVID, we divided the video into several keyframes and performed a reverse image search on them. This directed us to the same visuals published on an unverified YouTube channel named 'TV9 Bangla'. It was uploaded on 27 February 2022 and was its title when translated to English said, "WB Municipal Election 2022 | In booth No. 108 of Ward No. 33 of South Dumdum, the agent voted no." CEO Telangana refuted the viral claim: Sharing a press release, the Chief Electoral Officer (CEO) of Telangana clarified on X that the video is not from Telangana. The release mentioned that the video was not taken during any elections conducted in Telangana and asked people to share the correct information. Hyderabad Police clarified on X: The official X handle of Hyderabad City Police said that the video is unrelated to Bahadurpura and unrelated to 2024 Lok Sabha Elections. Conclusion: This video is old and unrelated to Telangana or 2024 Lok Sabha Elections. (Not convinced of a post or information you came across online and want it verified?
