At the same time, we found much information on delving regarding the viral video. We looked closely at the viral video and found that there was hyacinth inside the river. After looking at the CCTV video of the accident, it is clear that there was no water hyacinth in the river. Meanwhile, in the video of many other media reports, there was no water hyacinth in the river. So it can be assumed that the viral video is old. At present, the DFRAC team is delving into the viral video, the news will be updated as soon as the original source of the video is known.
Conclusion:
It is clear from the verification of DFRAC that the SIT searching into the Morbi accident is still going on. There is no link to any terrorist stratagem yet. Therefore, the claim of social media users is wrong.
