Social media circulated a video showing a group of people throwing religious statues into a river after the disasters and floods that struck Nepal. Some claimed that this scene expressed Nepalese acceptance of Islam following the floods. However, investigations revealed that the footage is not related to the floods or any religious conversion; rather, it is a scene from a Hindu religious ritual known as "Vesargan," associated with the festival of "Ganesh Chaturthi," in which a Hindu deity idol is immersed in water as part of the celebrations. It also turned out that the video is old and dates back to religious events in India before the disaster in Nepal. The claims about Nepalese embracing Islam are false and are being exploited by some accounts taking advantage of the crisis to serve propaganda purposes.
