FACT CHECK

NewsMobile fact-checked the above post and found the claim to be fake.
We put the image through Reverse Image Search, we found that the above picture was taken in Pakistan in 2015.
We found the picture on AP Images and the caption read, “Pakistani protesters burn an Indian flag during a protest in Multan, Pakistan, Thursday, June 11, 2015. Pakistan has reacted angrily to comments made by the Indian prime minister that reportedly acknowledged Indian forces had a role in the war that created Bangladesh, part of Pakistan until 1971 when separatists won independence after a war.
