What FACTLY found

These visuals actually show large crowd attending the funeral procession of Pakistani cleric Khadim Rizvi back in 2020. Multiple news agencies published similar visuals attributing them to the cleric’s funeral. Though the kisan Mahapanchayat saw the participation of a large number of people, the visuals of the viral video have nothing to do with this panchayat

Their words, from the summary they publish with the rating.

In short

This claim spread on social media around 6 September 2021. FACTLY (India) looked into it and published its finding on 24 September 2021, 18 days later. Its rating was “FALSE”.
