Not only are the people seen in both the videos same, even the slogans heard in the two are same as well.
Slogans such as “Kashmir sangharsh zindabad…punjab sarkar murdabad..punjab police murdabad” can be heard in both the videos.
The BBC video mentions that several workers, students and farmers had then come together to protest against the abrogation of Article 370. They had said that they will hold a protest in Punjab’s Mohali on 15 September, however, the “administration had refused permission for it”.
Speaking to The Quint, Kuldeep Singh Chahal, SSP Mohali, too, said the video in question is an old one.
Evidently, an old video of people protesting against Article 370 in Punjab has been revived to claim that it’s a recent one.
