The video of a minibus traveling on a rough road is from Indonesia and is not related to India.

Video of a minibus with passengers traveling on a waterlogged road is going viral on social media. It can be seen that the bus manages with great difficulty to cross the section of the road. A passenger sitting on top of the bus fell on the road due to its bad condition. 

Users are sharing this video claiming it to be an incident from India. You can hear PM Modi’s audio, talking about the use of space technology for the construction of the roads in the country. 

However, Fact Crescendo found the claim to be false. This is a video from Indonesia and not related to India.

Fact Check- 

A Google Reverse Image Search on a keyframe led us to the same viral video uploaded on ‘iNews Bulletin’ an Indonesian News agency in 2022. According to the report, the incident of a passenger falling from a bus passing a damaged road is from Labuhanbatu, a city in North Sumatra province of Indonesia. 

Looking at the viral video closely, we found KUPJ Tour written on the bus. 

Upon searching the name on Google, we found that the transport operates under the same name in the Sumatra Island of Indonesia. 

Another News agency reported that the incident took place in Jambur 9 Hamlet, North Labuhanbatu in North Sumatra province. The video had drawn attention from netizens, who urged the local government to fix the road to prevent further danger to drivers and passengers.

Conclusion: 

Fact Crescendo found the claim to be false. The video of a minibus traveling on a rough road is from Indonesia and is not related to India.
