  • A disturbing picture showing a tragic incident from Telangana during last year's lockdown has been revived and is being peddled with false captions suggesting that the photo is from Bihar. BOOM found that the viral picture is from April 2020 and shows an incident from Telangana's Kamareddy district. Also read 2015 Photos Of Corpses Floating In The Ganga Falsely Shared As Recent The image is viral in the backdrop of a recent incident from Bihar wherein former MP and Jan Adhikar Party president Rajesh Ranjan (Pappu Yadav) had 'raided' a premise where over two dozen ambulances were lying unused. According to a report published in India Today, Yadav had on May 7 found over two dozen ambulances reportedly purchased from the funds of BJP MP Rajiv Pratap Rudy lying unused on a premise. This triggered a major controversy as the state is already grappling with Coronavirus pandemic. Interestingly, Yadav was taken into custody on May 11 for allegedly flouting the lockdown guidelines while visiting a Covid-19 ward at Patna Medical College and Hospital. Later, a case was registered against him in connection with a 1989 kidnapping incident, and he is currently under arrest for this case. Read more about it here. The viral picture meanwhile shows a man carrying a dead body behind his bicycle. A Hindi caption with the picture translates to 'It seems people of Bihar somehow like this, carry a body on the cycle while the ambulance thief MP keeps the ambulances parked on his premises. And the person who breaks this news is sent to jail. Bihar's population does not like help'. (Hindi: बिहार वालों को यही अच्छा लगता हैं ,लाश साइकिल पर ले कर घूमो ,एम्बुलेंस चोर सांसद एम्बुलेंस को अपने घर मे छुपा कर रखेगा, और उसका खुलासा करने वाला ही जेल चला गया। बिहार के जनता को सेवा भी अच्छी नही लगती।) View the post below and check its archived version here.
