Claim

A disturbing video of a 19-year-old woman tortured by a group of men, who tied her to a tree in a tribal village of Alirajpur, Madhya Pradesh, is viral with claims that she was thrashed by Trinamool Congress goons in West Bengal. The message along with the video reads that she was targeted as her brother is a BJP worker. The caption along with the video reads, "Mamata's brokers, even after watching condition of Bengal yours eye is yet closed. Supporters of TMC will kill you like a dog. This daughter's fault is she is a Dalit and her brother is a BJP worker. Where is the media now?" (Original caption in Hindi: "अभी बंगाल का हाल देखकर भी आंखें नहीं खुल रही तुम्हारी, ममता के दलालों! टीएमसी वालो कुते की मौत मरोगे तुम हरामियों...इस बेटी का बस इतना कसूर है - ये एक दलित है। और इसका भाई भाजपा का कार्यकर्ता है। अब कहाँ है मीडिया?")
