Claim: Clam: The visuals show a communal attack on Hindus during the Goddess Durga Idol's immersion procession in Bilaspur.
Fact-check: Video of a clash between two Hindu groups over Durga idol immersion is shared with a communal narrative - FACTLY
Verdict: the video from the viral post is of an actual incident which occurred in bilaspur on 07 october 2022. reportedly, two durga puja committees fought over who gets to go first for the immersion. the viral post falsely claims this event as a communal attack on the hindus, while in reality, both the groups that fought were hindus. the same can be verified from the names mentioned in an f.i.r registered by the police. hence, the claim made in this post is misleading.
