The video shows youths protesting naked against people getting jobs on fake caste certificates in Chhattisgarh. 

A disturbing video of two Kuki women in Manipur being paraded naked and sexually assaulted by a large mob of men has sparked widespread protests across the country. As per the Indigenous Tribal Leaders’ Forum (ITLF), the incident is said to have occurred on 4 May in Kangpokpi district in Manipur, a day after clashes erupted between the two ethnic groups. The assaulters were Meiteis. Following this, P M Modi addressed the viral video and assured that the accused will not be spared. Four people who were allegedly part of the mob which paraded the women have been arrested so far. After the footage came out, the social media is full of anger against the central government.

On this backdrop, in a video, a group of men holding placards can be seen running and shouting some slogans naked on a road. The video has been shared by several users claiming that it shows people protesting over ‘the Manipur incident.
