“Video of Uttar Pradesh government attacking protesting women farmers with a water tanker”
What FACTLY found
This incident happened at Amritsar city in Punjab, not at the Ghazipur border in Uttar Pradesh. This video shows a water tanker hitting a group of women going to join a sit-in meeting held in support of the farmers at Vallah area in Amritsar. This video has nothing to do with the ongoing tussle between the protesting farmers and the Uttar Pradesh Government at the Ghazipur border
