Fact Check: Did Bengal police thrash a man for saying "Jai Shri Ram"?

India Today  

The Jai Shri Ram controversy that rocked Bengal during elections refuses to die down on social media. A video of police brutality has gone viral on social media where a police officer is seen thrashing a chained man in front of other policemen and the man can be heard shouting Jai Bajrang Bali. Facebook user Rajesh Rawat posted the video with the claim that the man kept on saying Jai Shri Ram even after heavy thrashing from Bengal police. In 2017, Fact Check website Alt News debunked a separate claim made on the same viral video. Tarun Sengupta, BJP’s IT cell head in Asansol, posted the fake claim along with the viral video on his Facebook page on April 17, 2017.
