“Visuals of an auto rickshaw rally in Telangana, protesting against the free bus facility for women, a scheme implemented by the Congress Government”
What FACTLY found
Viral video shows an election campaign rally led by Patancheru BRS MLA, Gudem Mahipal Reddy. This footage was available online as early as 25 November 2023, clearly predating the implementation of the Free Bus Facility scheme for women in Telangana, which occurred on 09 December 2023. Despite media reports of auto drivers protesting against the scheme’s implementation, the viral video is not related to these current events
