A video of people carrying flags during what appears to be a rally is being shared on social media platforms with users claiming that it shows recent visuals from Haryana's Mewat.

What do viral posts say?: Sharing the video, people have captioned it saying, "Mewat Mamman Khan's rally is an eye-opener for Hindus, this sight is enough for the wise. Almost all Muslim countries have flags. If you don't open your eyes even now, you will be called a living corpse."
