Claim: Video showing an Army aspirant standing up to the Police during the protests against Agnipath scheme in Bihar.
Fact-check: Old video from Kashmir is shared as an Army aspirant standing up to the Police during the protests against Agnipath scheme in Bihar - FACTLY
Verdict: the visuals of the video are from 2021 in kashmir, not the from bihar. on 17 august 2021, police in kashmir fired tear gas and warning shots to disperse people who gathered in light of the muharram processions. the visuals were taken when a kashmiri shiite muslim, with knives used for self-flagellation, tried to attack a policeman. protests erupted in bihar, against the agnipath scheme introduced by the central government for recruitment into the indian armed forces. however, this video is not from bihar and not related to the current protests. hence, the claim made in the post is false.
