Claim

People attacked Congress workers during bike rally against drug in Ajnala, Punjab. People of Ajnala accused hypocrite Congress responsible for drug mafia in the area.

Fact

A photo from 2016 showing a Congress rally being attacked has been revived with a misleading claim and is being shared out of context. The image is being shared in the backdrop of the current political situation in Punjab. According to a Hindustan Times report, the incident took place in Ajnala on September 25, 2016 when a group of around 10 youths, suspected to be Akali workers, attacked a Congress bike rally. BOOM had fact checked the photo earlier when it was viral with a different claim. Click on the link to read full report.
