With Delhi in the grip of a public health emergency, a set of photographs has been shared with the claim that these represent devotees offering prayers in the Yamuna river. The visuals depict the intensely polluted condition of the river, filled with toxic foam.<\/p>\n

News18 Hindi<\/em><\/a>, in an article published on November 3, published some photographs claiming that they were clicked at Kalindi Kunj in Delhi on the occasion of Chhat puja when women offered their prayers.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The photos were also posted on Twitter. The below tweet by journalist Prashant Kanojia has been retweeted close to 350 times. According to him, the photos are from Kalindi Kunj in the capital, on the occasion of Chhat puja.<\/p>\n

FACT CHECK: OLD PHOTOS<\/strong><\/h2>\n

While it is true that chhat puja<\/em> was observed in the national capital amid the white foam of the polluted Yamuna river, some of the photographs circulated on social media are not recent.<\/p>\n

The photograph in question, for instance, was clicked in 2016. Alt News found it in a photo feature published by The Indian Express<\/em><\/a> in November 2016.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Yet another image, which has been published by News18 Hindi<\/em><\/a> as recent, too dates back to November 2016. This is also a part of The Indian Express<\/em><\/a> photo feature.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

It may be noted that not all the photos posted on social media are old. Some of the pictures are indeed recent.<\/p>\n
