Claim: Shiraj Ahmed & Bhujouli Kurd refusing to eat food cooked by a Dalit woman at a quarantine center.
Fact-check: Two unrelated incidents from two different quarantine centers have been clubbed to mislead people - FACTLY
Verdict: the video was taken at a quarantine center in bihar. the men in the video have asked the women cooks to serve them food without following social distancing. when the women denied, they kicked the food placed on the bench. there is no dalit angle in the incident. an fir was filed on pankaj, manoj, and ashok. in another incident, shiraj ahmed, a resident of bhujouli khurd village , has refused to eat food cooked by a dalit woman at a quarantine center in the village. so, the video of an incident in bihar is being shared with the claim related to an incident in uttar pradesh. hence the claim made in the post is misleading.
