“Jind breaking news 16मार्च- जींद की सुनार मार्किट से सोने का खजाना निकला
सुनार मार्किट से बाहर निकल खजाना, सरकार के फूटे भाग और सुनारों की हुई बल्ले बल्ले…
जींद में रानी तालाब से आसरी गेट से होते हुए सत्यनारायण मन्दिर की और जाने वाली सुनार मार्किट के दुकानदार पिछले कई महीनो से उनकी दुकानो में आई मोटी मोटी दरारों से परेशान थे कि सड़क में पानी की पाईप लाईन टूटी हुई है। जिस कारण पानी की मार से सभी दुकानों में भयंकर दरारे आ गई थी दुकानदारो ने इसकी शिकायत कई अधिकारियो से की लेकिन कई महीनो से सैकड़ो चक्कर काटने के बाद भी कोई अधिकारी कर्मचारी मौके पर नहीं आया। इसलिए मजबूरन जींद के सुनारों ने अपने रूपये से मजदूर लगाकर आज ही गली तुड़वाई और देखो सुनारों की किस्मत गली तोड़ते ही सोने की गिन्नियों से भरा कलश… दो दबंग कलश लेकर फरार
इसे कहते है फूटी किस्मत सरकार की अगर प्रशासन अपने कर्मचारी भेजता तो शायद सरकार के हाथ कोई खजाना लग सकता था… अब तो सुनारों की ही बल्ले बल्ले हो गई…
अब पछताए होत क्या, जब चिड़िया चुग गई खेत… अब सरकारी अधिकारी” – the caption read.

FACT CHECK 

NewsMobile fact-checked the above post and found the claim to be FALSE.

On putting the images of gold through Reverse Image Search, we found that the pictures are from Italy and were taken in 2018.

We found an article by ABC News dated September 10, 2018, titled, “Hundreds of gold coins dating to Rome’s Imperial era found in Italy.”

The picture caption read, “hundreds of gold coins dating to the 4th or 5th century were found in an archaeological dig in Como, Italy.”

We also found a tweet by the Italian Ministry of Culture and Tourism.


We also noticed the name of the jewellery shop in the picture and contacted the owner of ‘Maya Jewellers’. He told us that the news is fake.

“This is fake news. Someone might have clicked the picture when water pipelines were being laid. And no gold was found during the construction work,” Manish, the owner of Maya Jewellers told NewsMobile.

The above information proves that this viral news is fake.
