“Real Name – Mohammad Nisar Orange T-shirt, Tilak on Forhead. Now you can understand many things.

His video was retweeted by multiple users, a bulk of those followed by BJP leaders, including the Prime Minister – Dr Shobha, Maria Wirth, Anil Kohli.<\/p>\n

Several people propagated that this man was caught stone-pelting at Amit Shah’s Kolkata rally and that the violence was orchestrated by the TMC.<\/p>\n

Shocking how #TMC<\/a> orchestrated the Violence during @AmitShah<\/a> Road Show in Kolkata yesterday.<\/p>\n

This guy in this Clip is Mohammed Nissar. Just observe he’s made to wear a #SaffronTShirt<\/a> and a #Tilak<\/a> on his forehead.<\/p>\n

He was caught pelting stones at @AmitShah<\/a> Road Show.

Video from Jharkhand<\/h2>\n

There are several hints in the video itself that suggest that it does not depict the aftermath of the violence at Kolkata’s Vidyasagar college. Firstly, the men are speaking a dialect uncommon in West Bengal. The accent sounds similar to that of the people from Hindi-speaking East Indian states – Bihar, Jharkhand, Uttar Pradesh or Chattisgarh. Secondly, the site where the man was caught does not resemble the Calcuttan streets where violence during Shah’s roadshow took place.<\/p>\n

Alt News found a user who commented that the video is from Jharkhand. “No this is stone pelting incident from Jugsalai #<\/s>Jamshedpur #<\/s>Jharkhand on polling day May 12 in a booth. His name Md Irshad, arrested and sent to jail,”\u00a0<\/em>he alleged.<\/p>\n

When we looked for media reports on the said incident, we came across a News18 Jharkhand\u00a0<\/em>broadcast where the same man can be seen caught by the police at 2:19 seconds.<\/p>\n
