Editorial

A video of a fruitseller deceiving his customers has gone viral with the claim that he hails from the minority community and he is duping Hindus. The video shows the seller putting away a couple of fruits while packing and handing the bag back to the unaware customer. The cameraperson captures these instances and confronts the seller who then apologises to one of the customers. Alt News found that this is yet another scripted video that was shared with a false, anti-Muslim narrative. Such videos are part of a recent trend to target minorities.
