FACT CHECK

When NewsMobile fact-checked the above posts, we came to the conclusion that false information is being spread as the above picture is not from Uttarakhand.

Firstly, on noticing the direction of the vehicles, it is certain that it is from a left-hand drive country. Moreover, there is no sea-like waterbody along the route to Chardham.

On putting the picture through Reverse Image Search, we found that this is from Tangier in Morocco, and the name of the road is ‘Route de la Plage Merkala.’

Hence, this proves that the above picture is not from Uttarakhand.
