Kisne feka: An overcrowded train video is going viral across social media. It claims that candidates of the Preliminary Eligibility Test (PET) hang on to trains in a rush to the exam centres. The Uttar Pradesh Subordinate Services Selection Commission conducted the PETs on the 15th and 16th of October. This has led to a massive rush of passengers at several UP-railway stations and bus depots as many candidates travelled towards and away from their exam centres.
Fact-check: The viral claim is false. A tweet by North Central Railway was published on October 15, 2022. The tweet cautioned against spreading rumours while tagging Congress Secretary Priyanka Gandhi. The caption of the tweet notes, “Regarding Priyanka Gandhi’s tweet (now deleted), it is clarified that coach number 40042 of MEMU train has not passed Prayagraj today, and this image has nothing to do with the UP-PET exam.”
