Fact check
After doing the reverse image search, we found that the video was released in 2018. Jubileehills Feroz Khan posted the viral video in 2018. Therefore the claim is misleading as the video is old and belongs to Maharashtra as the initial conversation was done in Marathi. The user also claimed that it is a sight of Mumbai.
Conclusion: the claim is misleading.
Claim review: A video of a Muslim man arguing with Police got viral during the Delhi riot.
Claim by: Sudarshan News
Fact check: misleading
