A video showing women standing with brooms and raising slogans is being shared on social media, where users are sharing it as visuals from West Bengal.
The claim: The video is being shared to claim that it shows women in West Bengal protesting against the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), wanting the party to be removed from the state.
How do we know?: A reverse image search on the video led us to a Facebook post which shared the same video on 3 September, with a Bengali caption.
Loosely translated, it said that the woman of the Kuchlibari area of the Mekhliganj block of Cooch Behar district "launched a movement against the issuance of a new license to open government liquor shops" in the area, expressing concerns over the environment.
We also came across a report by Uttara Banga Sambad which carried the same visuals and was published on 2 September.
It noted that the women were protesting the construction of a liquor brewery, saying that it might lead to addiction among the youth in the area, causing unrest.
The reported added that an excise officer told them that a person had applied for the construction of a brewery, but higher authorities had not yet permitted the construction.
Conclusion: A photo of women protesting the construction of a brewery is being shared to falsely claim that it shows women in West Bengal opposing the BJP.
