Misleading Video Falsely Linked to Jashore Kali Temple Fire

Jashore:A misleading claim has been circulating on social media, suggesting that a video from India depicts a fire at a Kali temple in Jashore, Bangladesh.

According to Bangladesh Sangbad Sangstha, FactWatch, a fact-checking platform, has detected that the video in question is being shared on Facebook with the false claim that the Kali Puja mandap at Kali Bazar in Jashore district was set on fire.

The video, however, actually shows an incident occurring in India, not in Bangladesh. FactWatch identified this claim as an attempt to spread misinformation and create confusion by falsely linking the footage to an event in Jashore.

FactWatch continues to verify information circulating on social media to identify and address false or misleading claims.
