“The video shows authorities acting against madrasas in Uttar Pradesh following the passage of the Waqf Amendment Bill.”
What FACTLY found
The video predates the Waqf Amendment Bill and is from Uttarakhand. It shows officials from Bhagwanpur inspecting unregistered madrasas as part of a local administrative drive. The police badge visible in the video belongs to the Uttarakhand Police, not the Uttar Pradesh Police. Multiple news reports confirm that the action was part of an ongoing campaign by the Uttarakhand administration to act against illegally operated madrasas and it has no connection to the Waqf Amendment Bill.
