A video circulating on Facebook claims that on Thursday, January 20, at 6 AM, Bangladesh’s former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina was moved from New Delhi to the Indian state of Hindol under special security arrangements by the Indian government. During this time, she reportedly delivered a message for Amar Ekushey.
In the video, a convoy of vehicles is seen moving along a foggy highway while a police officer is seen saluting it. Towards the end of the video, an image of an armed security force dressed in black is shown.
Fact-Check
The claim that Sheikh Hasina was moved to Hindol, which was posted on Facebook on February 20 from the profile of Nasima Sultana Mohua, is false.
A fact-check by news agency UNB found that the video in question is actually from January 5, 2022. It shows Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi canceling his visit to Ferozepur in Punjab due to adverse weather conditions.
This video has been broadcast by several Indian media outlets, including Hindi-language news channel ABP News. Reports state that Narendra Modi was on his way to Bhatinda district in Punjab and was scheduled to fly back to New Delhi from there.
