What FACTLY found

The video does not show bulldozer action in West Bengal. It actually shows a demolition drive carried out by the Chattogram Development Authority (CDA) near Sheikh Mujib Road in Chattogram, Bangladesh, on 12 May 2026. Although there have been reports of anti-encroachment drives and bulldozer actions in West Bengal, this video is unrelated to those incidents.
