Rishikesh Viral Video: Instances seemingly advocating for people believing in the need for ‘behavioural certificates’ for something as common as travelling, are surely increasing at an alarming rate. Confused? Let’s explain with a recent example. An incident came forward, where some tourists from a different state were seen ganging up on a single person. The victim in question was a petrol pump worker, who was then brutally beaten up by 3 to 4 tourists over some heated argument. The incident took place in Uttarakhand’s Rishikesh on Sunday, April 28.
A video of the same was recorded by a local, who was heard speaking about giving the footage to the police. The video was shared on social media as well, which went viral. The incident, as per the post, took place at night near a hotel.
The video was shared on social media platform Reddit, by the Redditor ‘zindaxhoon’.
