Can you please pass on this news as fast as possible so that many people can pray for them?

 

Had some Goosebumps! Seriously, this is way more insane and inhuman. After seeing the image and reading the article, I find no fucking (sorry for the word) god damn logic for any act of penalty in any way. Really feel so sorry and bad to utter, but trust me, I feel like to spit on the faces of those people (not just people, Unethical people) around who have created a way more immoral scene. I actually feel so sorry for that family and trust me, this is so traumatic!
"Shame on Us, cause pretty helplessly!"

 

Viral Message Verification:- The story of a Christian Pastor was shared as “Please pray for the Christian Pastor and his wife, being humiliated by Indians in Utter Pradesh -India, for preaching the Gospel”.

If you see the headline utter Pradesh, reread it and check the spelling. It is Uttar Pradesh and not Utter Pradesh as mentioned in the shared news.

The news was shared in the below post.

The Facebook post does not show a Christian pastor and his wife and child; it is just a manipulation of the image and simple editing.

There is no evidence that a Christian pastor and his wife were humiliated in Uttar Pradesh, India. The image often shared online with this claim is from a 2015 protest by a Dalit family in Uttar Pradesh. The Dalits are a group of people considered lower caste in the Hindu hierarchy and often face discrimination and violence.

The image shows the Dalit family protesting naked outside a police station. They are protesting against alleged police inaction on a complaint they had filed. The image is often shared with the caption, "Christian pastor and his wife humiliated in Uttar Pradesh for preaching the gospel." However, there is no evidence to support this claim.

There have been cases of Christian persecution in India, but there is no evidence that this particular case is real. It is important to be critical of the information you see online and only trust reliable sources.

As reported in India today, "Dalit family bares it all after Greater Noida police fail to register their FIR.”

The news goes back to October 2015; it stated Five people, including three women, were arrested on Thursday after they allegedly stripped in a market in Dankaur in Gautam Budh Nagar to protest the police's alleged refusal to register a complaint of robbery.

The whole episode flared up after a video of a naked Dalit family protesting against the alleged inaction of the Uttar Pradesh Police in Gautam Budh Nagar district went viral on social media on Thursday.

A Facebook friend shared the story below. I copied the image and uploaded it to Google Images. Within seconds, it was verified through a hoax alert that this was fake and very dirty propaganda. The true story relates to a Dalit family stripping to protest Police inaction. Despicable people used this to defame Hindus with their dirty propaganda. So please, if you get such fakes, fight the urge to cringe and upload the image to Google Images. It will take 2 seconds to verify the truth. Please do not become an unwitting participant in spreading fake and damaging propaganda.
