In the clip, the pair get out of the temple and sit on a bike and start to leave, during which the woman\u2019s dupatta gets stuck in one of the bike\u2019s wheels. Seeing the woman in distress, a Muslim passerby hands over her burqa to help the lady cover up herself. Social media users have been amplifying this as a real incident.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A user named Zafar Saifi made the same claim while tweeting the video. It racked up more than 1.6 lakh views at the time of writing. Several hours after multiple users questioned the authenticity of the video, Zafar tweeted that though he didn\u2019t know if the video was original or scripted, it had a positive message.

There were many characteristics in this video which made us suspect that it was scripted. For example, the picture quality of the CCTV footage is unusually high, whereas CCTV footage usually is of a much lower resolution. The recording template and sound effects in this video are also similar to scripted videos that Alt News has investigated before.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Using these clues, we examined the YouTube channel \u20183RD EYE\u2019, which regularly posts scripted videos to spread awareness.

The video contains a disclaimer at the end which clearly mentions that all the characters seen here are fictional, and it was made for entertainment and educational purposes only.
