Many Hinduphobe accounts on X (formerly Twitter), mostly based in Pakistan, are actively spreading misinformation and hate content around Indians to propagate a malicious agenda against Indians. Recently, a video of a person making bhang is going viral, in which it is being claimed that he is selling it to people by mixing cow dung in milk. @/AsianDigest aka Crime Reports India (archived link), a Pakistan-based Hinduphobe propagandist account, shared the video and wrote, “People actually pay to drink cow dung in India (Pajeet Land). The tweet has garnered almost 4k likes so far.

At the beginning of our research, we extracted keyframes from the video and ran a reverse image search. With the help of reverse image search, we found the original video uploaded by @/proteenx4699 on YouTube. The video is titled “Making Bhang.”
Bhang is a traditional Indian drink made by mixing cannabis (marijuana) paste with milk. Bhang is traditionally distributed during the spring festivals of Maha Shivratri and Holi. Bhang leaves were also used in ancient Indian times.
Conclusion: The claim that the man is mixing cow dung in milk is false. In the original video, the person is preparing bhang drink by mixing cannabis paste in milk.
