CC: Times Now, Zee ![\\"alsoRead-img\\"](\\"\\") ADVERTISEMENTREMOVE AD TRUE OR FALSE? An old video from has been re-shared with a false message. The video is from Morari Bapu’s Ram Katha held in 2016 in Abu Dhabhi, not from the laying of the foundation stone of the first Hindu temple. WHAT WE FOUND OUT? The viral video was uploaded on YouTube in September 2016, which is three years ago, while the foundation stone for the first Hindu Temple in Abu Dhabi was laid just last month on 20 April 2019. Dainik Bhaskar reported on the event, stating that Morari Bapu held a Ram Katha in Abu Dhabi on the occasion of Navaratri. The event was also recorded and put up on Morari Bapu’s official YouTube channel. The laying of foundation stone of the Hindu temple took place last month, as reported by The Quint. It will be the first traditional Hindu stone temple in the Middle East, and is being constructed by Bochasanwasi Shri Akshar Purushottam Swaminarayan Sanstha (BAPS), a socio-spiritual Hindu organisation.
