Fact
By searching with a few relevant keywords, we found reports of a flyover collapse in Varanasi that indicated that the clip is from 2018. We have previously fact-checked this clip when it went viral as an incident from Telangana. A report by ABP News on May 15, 2018, titled 'Watch graphically Varanasi bridge collapse incident' had the same visuals as our viral video. 19 people died in this flyover collapse, following which a contractor and seven engineers from the UP Bridge Corporation were arrested.
