A collage with a couple of images is being shared on social media claiming it as the pictures of mysterious tunnels in Dwaraka. This post claims that an English author named John Wood published a book about the mysterious tunnels in Dwaraka. Let’s verify the claims made in the post.
Claim: Photos of the mysterious tunnels in Dwaraka.
Fact: The first photo in the post shows a digitally created image, designed by a graphic designer named Batkya. The second photo shows a pedestrian tunnel constructed between Kamenovo beach and Rafailovici village in Montenegro. It is nowhere reported that an English author named John Wood, published a book on the Dwaraka Tunnels. Hence, the claim made in the post is FALSE.
