Similarly, many other users on Facebook and Twitter shared this video in large numbers.

Fact Check:

To verify the above claim,  we took the help of the InVid tool by converting the video into different keyframes and doing a google reverse image search in each keyframe. Then, we found a news report from TV 9 Hindi in this regard. A screenshot of the viral video was used in this report.

Further, according to the report this incident is of Shivaji Chowk in Bhabua, Bihar. There was an incident of assault with the accused son of the ward member. In the video, a mob is seen thrashing the accused man while chanting ‘Jai Shri Ram.’
