“People of Uttar Pradesh threw away milk as a mark of protest against the government’s inaction against cow disease (lumpy skin disease)”
What FACTLY found
The visuals in the viral video are related to the protests that occurred in Gujarat last month. The Maldhari community of Gujarat reportedly protested against a proposed cattle bill which prohibits the movement of stray cattle on roads and public spaces in the state’s urban areas. No such protest was reported in Uttar Pradesh
