A video is being shared on Facebook with the claim that the video has been shot at the Howrah Bridge last week. In the video, it can be seen that the water is flooding the banks. Let’s try to analyze the claim made in the post.
Claim: The flooding video was taken at the time of Cyclone Fani.
Fact: The video posted is an old video. It is not related to Cyclone Fani. Hence the claim made in the post is FALSE.
When searched for ‘Flooding at Howrah Bridge’ on YouTube, a similar video can be found in the search results. But, that video was uploaded to YouTube on July 6th 2018. So, the video posted on Facebook is an old one and not related to the recent Cyclone Fani.
To sum it up, the flooding video at Howrah bridge was not taken during Cyclone Fani.
