Amid the CAA protests in Delhi’s Shaheen Bagh, a video has surfaced on the internet in which Sikh people in huge numbers can be seen marching. It has been claimed that Sikh people joined the CAA protest at Shaheen Bagh.

The caption of the video in HINDI read: “दिल्ली शाहीनबाग पहुचे सिख भाई कहा हम भी मुसलमानों के साथ है No NRC No CAA.”

At the time of filing this report, the above video was shared by over 1.2 lakh Facebook users and had over 1.7 million views.

FACT CHECK

NewsMobile fact-checked the above video and found the claim attached to the video is FAKE.
On closely analyzing the video, we noticed a bike with Punjab’ registration number plate and a car with ‘Punjab Police’ written on the windshield.

On digging further, we found a video posted by Sri Bhaini Sahib in which a man is clarifying that the viral video is of a march organized by Namdhari Sikhs to commemorate the 550th birth anniversary of Guru Nanak Dev.

On our further investigation, we found a video on YouTube dated November 02, 2019, of the same march from a different angle.

In conclusion, the above information proves that the viral video has no connection with protests at Delhi’s Shaheen Bagh.
