Slowly and steadily Punjab is recovering from the devastating impact of floods 2025. Punjab Floods 2025 affected over 3 lakh people and claimed more than 50 lives in the state.
While most of the people are busy in Punjab flood relief related work, a few of them are busy peddling propaganda and false narratives.
Recently, the topic 'buried US Dollars Punjab Floods' became a matter of discussion on social media.
Sharing the video, a user wrote on social media, 'A family kept large amount of US dollars buried in their land, after the floods, all these US dollars got spoiled.'
In the viral video, bundles of US dollars can be seen spoilt allegedly by water.
Another user shared the same video and wrote, "(Translated Version) In Punjab, a family had buried American dollars in their land, which have now been completely ruined after the flood. The question is, where did this money come from? Pigeon smuggling..? Khalistani connection..? Alleged farmer protests..? Or a 'natural' gift..?"
The video that is going viral linking it to Punjab Floods 2025 is totally fake and misleading.
True Scoop tried to reverse search a keyframe from the viral video. Google showcased plethora of same videos that were uploaded before Punjab Floods came into effect i.e. on August 1, 2025.
As per reports, the video was posted on July 29 on TikTok on username Galaxy Restore (@ifound504). The video was titled, 'A pile of dollars. 690000$.'
The location mentioned in the post was Los Angeles in the US. In it, a woman could be heard speaking in English. This means the viral clip’s audio was manipulated.
