The Uttar Pradesh government portrayed an ad on infrastructure development in the state using an image of a flyover in Kolkata.

Indian Express has clarified that an incorrect image of the flyover was used inadvertently in the ad published by the media outlet.

Indian Express has clarified that an incorrect image of the flyover was used inadvertently in the ad published by the media outlet.The elections are scheduled for next year in the state of UP. The advertisement “Transforming UP' published to project the economic progress of the U.P. government under Yogi's rule with a purported image of the Kolkata flyover and other buildings in its vicinity sparked a row between TMC and BJP. Several TMC leaders began pointing out that the image is from the “Maa flyover” in Kolkata. The full-page advertisement was published in the English newspaper ‘Indian Express.’

After a huge political outcry on social media, the newspaper issued a corrigendum via a tweet that said a wrong image was included in the collage produced by its marketing department. The same has been removed from all its publication. Hence we mark the claim as false.
