FACT CHECK: MOCK DRILL VIDEO<\/strong><\/h2>\n

In the past, Alt News has encountered similar scenarios, wherein videos of supposed police or military operations have been circulated on social media. These videos turned out to be mock drills carried out by security forces. Prima facie, this video too seemed like a mock drill, judging by the reaction of some of the uniformed personnel, who can be seen smiling. At 1:40 minutes in the video, a voice can be heard saying, “There should be no laughter during the photo session”. (translated from Hindi).<\/em><\/p>\n

With the assumption that the video represents a mock drill, Alt News searched with relevant keywords and found an article published on the website www.naidunia.com<\/em><\/a>, dated September 28, 2019. The article stated that a mock drill was conducted by Vidisha police at the collectorate premises in Vidisha district, MP.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

On further searching, we found an article published on a website, Khabar State<\/em><\/a>. The article carried the same still as seen at the end of the video. It stated that the mock drill was carried out on September 27, with Vidisha police demonstrating quick response to a ‘hostage’ situation.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A comparison of the two images is shown below.<\/p>\n

It may be noted that the video circulated on social media as Vidisha police arresting five terrorists, is actually a video of a mock drill conducted by the police in September. Another video of a mock drill<\/a> was shared in September as explosives recovered from Ahmednagar bus stand in Maharashtra. Earlier in August 2019, multiple videos of mock drills were shared<\/a> as Mumbai under terror alert.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
