The same video was also uploaded by P24 News on September 23, 2019.
We also found multiple 2019 media reports on the same. According to a report by The Tribune, dated September 20, 2019, the bus was attacked in Kapurthala.
According to a report by Amar Ujala, the bus allegedly accidentally hit one of the horses of the jatha, angering the Nihangs. Following which, they blocked the bus and attacked it.
This proves that the video in circulation is old and has no relation to the ongoing farmers’ protest.
