How did we find out the truth?: We performed a reverse image search on some of the keyframes of the viral video on Google and this led us to several old reports published in November 2022.

  • Reports shared by NDTV, India Today, The Wire, Hindustan Times and Mathrubhumi English carried the same video or screengrabs from the viral video.

  • It mentioned that AAP MLA Gulab Singh Yadav was thrashed by AAP members for allegedly selling AAP tickets for the civic polls.

  • Yadav represents Matiala in the Delhi assembly.

Moreover, we did not find any recent reports about any AAP member being thrashed publicly.

Conclusion: An old video of AAP MLA being beaten up by AAP member is being peddled as a recent video from Delhi.
