Original review summary

FACTLY reports that the videos are unrelated to the Kancha Gachibowli activity: they show an elephant incident in West Bengal, deer in Haridwar, and an elephant in Africa. It concludes that old and unrelated visuals were shared as linked to the Hyderabad controversy.[S1]

Additional context

Land-leveling work began on 30 March 2025, and the Supreme Court ordered a halt to tree-felling on 3 April 2025. [S1]
