A video showing people hitting cars with sticks is being widely shared on social media. The post claims that people attacked BJP members in a village in Gujarat while they were campaigning.
The video is shared with a caption in Hindi: उत्तर गुजरात ना उंझा तालुका ना करली गांव मा प्रचार कर रहे बीजेपी के कार्यकर्ताओं को नारायण लल्लू समेत अन्य प्रचारकों को गांव में घुसने नहीं दिया. पुरसोतम रूपाला के बयान पर सभी की प्रतिक्रियाएं सामने आई है। और पूरा गांव बंद था.
(English translation: People in Karli village, Unjha Taluka of North Gujarat did not allow Narayan Lallu and other BJP campaigners to enter the village. Pursotam Rupala’s statement has sparked reactions. And the whole village was closed.)

FACT CHECK
NewsMobile fact-checked the post, and found it to be false.
Running the video keyframes through Reverse Image Search, the NM team found similar visuals in a report by Zee News, dated December 7, 2021.
The video report shows a violent skirmish between two rival BJP factions in Agra. The video is shared with a description: “Two factions of BJP clashed in Agra, Uttar Pradesh. It is told that there was a dispute between the two groups over the sound of sirens.”
The same video was shared on the YouTube channel of The Lallantop with a description, “The Bah assembly constituency of Agra district of UP became a battlefield on Tuesday, December 7. However, the special thing about this ‘war’ was that there were leaders and supporters of BJP on both sides. There was stone pelting, vehicle windows were broken. Fortunately, no one was seriously injured in this incident.
We also found a tweet by Agra Police, dated December 7, 2021, mentioning that the incident took place at Pinahat PS area in Agra.
