Claim: Image of a sinkhole which opened up along the roadway in Banaras, Uttar Pradesh.
Fact-check: Old image of a sinkhole on a road in Ahmedabad is falsely linked to Banaras in Uttar Pradesh - FACTLY
Verdict: this image is doing rounds on the internet for a few years now. also, in the image, we can see amc written on a barricade which stands for ahmedabad municipal corporation. when we compare the image in the post to the screenshot from the video of a sinkhole which opened up along a road in ahmedabad, we can see similar barricades with amc written on it. hence the claim made in the post is false.
