“Video shows 5000 lawyers protesting outside the Madhya Pradesh High Court after the life imprisonment of 14 cow vigilantes in the Narmadapuram mob attack case.”
What FACTLY found
This video is unrelated to the Narmadapuram lynching case. It actually shows scenes from the Uttar Pradesh Bar Council elections held at the Lucknow High Court in January 2026 and was available online well before the Narmadapuram court delivered its verdict. Moreover, there is no evidence of any large-scale protest by lawyers in support of the 14 convicted men.
