Investigation

Vishvas News first used Google reverse image search to find the location of this picture. We found this image in many places. A Facebook page uploaded this image on June 11, 2020, describing it as the intersection of Harni Road in Vadodara.

On this basis, Vishvas News searched by typing related keywords in Google. We got the viral picture from another angle on a website with the description that it is on Vadodara Airport Road.

Vishvas News also took the help of Google Maps to check this location. On searching with related keywords and Google Maps Street View we found this roundabout on the airport road of Vadodara. The roundabout in the viral picture can be seen here.

Vishvas News contacted Dainik Jagran Ayodhya Bureau Chief Rama Sharan Awasthi. Terming this viral post as fake, he said that this roundabout is not in Ayodhya.

Conclusion: This roundabout is in Vadodara in Gujarat, not Ayodhya. Viral claim is False.
