A clip showing a rally outside a mosque is widely circulated on social media, claiming that Hindus in Ujjain gathered in front of the mosque with saffron flags after pro-Pakistani slogans were raised in the area.
The post reads: “हाल ही में उज्जैन शहर में मुक्कारम जुलूस के दौरान मुसलमानों ने पाकिस्तान जिंदाबाद के नारे लगाए। दूसरे दिन शहर के सभी हिंदू भगवा झंडे लेकर मस्जिद के सामने जमा हुए। उन्होंने विरोध जताया कि “पाकिस्तान जिंदाबाद के नारे लगाने वालों को यहां नहीं रहना चाहिए, पाकिस्तान चले जाना चाहिए।” हिंदुओं का हुजूम देखिए। हरामखोर गद्दारों को देखो,, खाते हिंदुस्तान की और गाते है पाकिस्तान की,क्या वे फिर से पाकिस्तान के पक्ष में बोलेंगे? ऐसा रवैया पूरे भारत में होना चाहिए। जागो हिंदुओं जागो”

FACT CHECK
NewsMobile fact-checked the post, and found it to be false.
Running the video keyframes through Reverse Image Search, the NM team traced the same video uploaded on YouTube, dated March 2018, with a title: “Ram Navami Full Crowd In Karnataka Gulbarga 2k18.”
Searching further, we found the exact address of the mosque seen in the viral post. It is in Gulbarga, Karnataka.
We also found a picture of the same mosque on Google Maps Images. The image was also found on Google Earth.
Moreover, our team could not find any media report about the pro-Pakistan slogans raised in Ujjain. In the original video, the audio used is different from the one in the viral video, indicating that the audio has been doctored.
Hence, it is confirmed that the viral video, covering the Ram Navami procession in Karnataka, is at least five years old and circulated with false narratives.
