Alt News couldn’t identify the man in the image nor details about its location. However, it is not related to the recent farmers protest as it is at least five years old.<\/p>\n

Thus, an image of a Sikh man praying in a mosque that dates back to at least 2016 was shared with the false claim that he forgot to remove his turban after returning to the mosque from the farmers’ protest. In the past, Alt News has debunked similar claims<\/a> that allege people from the Muslim community are posing as farmers in the on-going movement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
