Rohingyas in West Bengal were seen chanting "Pakistan Zindabad" slogans during an election victory rally.

The image is taken from a rally held in Uttar Pradesh and people were chanting 'Haji Sahab Zindabad'.

The image is taken from a rally held in Uttar Pradesh and people were chanting 'Haji Sahab Zindabad'.The West Bengal assembly elections were held in April 2021, and the TMC party led by Mamata Banerjee retained its power in the state. Soon after, claims started circulating on social media that 31 Rohingyas who were recently elected held a Thanksgiving rally and chanted' Pakistan Zindabad.'

However, upon listening to the video keenly, we can hear people chanting “Haji Saab Zindabad.” The procession was held to celebrate the victory of Haji Abdul Kalim in the panchayat elections from Bahraich, Uttar Pradesh. The claim was also rubbished by Bahraich Police, stating that slogans raised in the victory procession of the newly elected head in the Rupidha police station area of ​​Bahraich are misleadingly promoted. Hence we mark the claim as false.
