New Delhi (Visvas News). A video has gone viral on social media following the terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir. It shows a man wearing Indian Army fatigues alleging the attack was “pre-planned” insider job, rather than an act of terror. The claim identifies him as “Indian Army soldier Ashok Kumar.”
Vishvas News found this claim to be fake in its investigation. The person in the video is not a soldier, and the video is part of a propaganda campaign from Pakistan, according to official sources.
It was originally shared by the now-deleted X handle @War_Analysts. The Indian Army has officially dismissed the video as “fake”, and confirmed that the featured individual has no connection with the Indian armed forces.
A similar video falsely claiming an Indian Army officer, Colonel Vijay Acharya, resigned following the deaths of 25 soldiers was previously circulated on social media. A fact-check by Vishvas News revealed that video was part of Pakistani propaganda. The investigation uncovered a fake claim originating from a proxy account that used the photograph of a retired army officer.
Social media user ‘the_haq_words’ (Akram Patel) shared this video (archive link ) with caption, “Indian Army soldier Ashok Kumar says what the media won’t say: Pahalgam is not what it is being shown. *Intelligence failed. Questions ignored. Are the public being fooled? *We already suspected this attack was the work of the BJP.”
