Discover the real story behind the viral video claiming to be Mukhtar Ansari's funeral procession. Read on for shocking revelations!

Mukhtar Ansari, the infamous gangster-turned-politician, was recently laid to rest in Ghazipur amidst a massive turnout of supporters, amid tight security. However, a viral video claiming to show his funeral procession was debunked by India Today Fact Check, revealing that it was actually the last rites of Indian Sufi scholar Saqlain Miyan in Bareilly. The controversy surrounding Ansari's death escalated with his family alleging that he was poisoned by the government. Meanwhile, a video of a heated argument between Ansari's kin and Ghazipur DM Aryaka Akhoury went viral on social media, adding fuel to the fire.

In another twist, social media was flooded with an old video falsely shared as Mukhtar Ansari's funeral procession, misleading many. The misinformation was called out by Newschecker, clarifying that the video actually depicted a different event in Bareilly. Swami Prasad Maurya also made a significant statement regarding Ansari's death, shedding light on the suspicions that were already looming before his passing. The funeral saw an emotional farewell from Ansari's son, Omar Ansari, at the Kalibagh cemetery in Yusufpur Mohammadabad, Ghazipur.

As the controversy surrounding Mukhtar Ansari's death continues to unfold, the conflicting narratives and allegations are creating a stir in the political landscape. The intense scrutiny on his final moments and the alleged foul play by the government have raised questions about accountability and transparency in the system. The legacy of Mukhtar Ansari, marked by his criminal past and subsequent foray into politics, leaves a complex narrative that will be debated for years to come.
