What's right
What's wrong
Breakdown
The claim that there is a place in India where water flows upwards is supported by multiple sources. These sources consistently identify this phenomenon in Mainpat, Chhattisgarh, often referred to as 'Ulta Pani' (reverse water).
The location is described as being near Ambikapur, and videos and descriptions show water appearing to flow uphill on roads. The phrase 'Miracle of Nature' is also associated with this phenomenon.
However, the underlying reason is explained as an optical illusion, siphon action, or magnetic effects, rather than water literally flowing upwards against gravity. Some sources also pinpoint the exact location within Mainpat as Bisarpani village or Ultapani. [1][2][3]
