Congress’s 'Shirtless' Attempt to Defame India’s AI Summit at Bharat Mandapam

Описание: Congress’s 'Shirtless' Attempt to Defame India’s AI Summit at Bharat Mandapam

The Bharatiya Janata Party on Friday launched the scathing attack on the Congress party over its ‘shirtless’ protest at the AI Impact Summit held at Bharat Mandapam, calling the demonstration an attempt to undermine India’s global achievements in technology.

The controversy erupted after Indian Youth Congress activists staged a shirtless protest at the venue, targeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the AI Summit.

BJP national spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla accused the Congress of opposing national progress under the guise of political dissent.

He said the protest reflected the party’s mindset toward India’s development narrative.

“Congress has once again proven that for them, AI isn't Ambitious India, Artificial Intelligence, or Aspirational India. For them, AI is anti-India. This isn't the INC, this is the ANC, the anti-National Congress,” Poonawalla said.

He further alleged that the demonstration was politically motivated and not merely a protest against the ruling party.

“But at Rahul Gandhi's behest, the Congress party is protesting; it is a characterless, brainless, emotionless protest. This isn't a protest against the BJP, it's not a protest against the PM, it's a protest against India's achievements,” he added.

Poonawalla emphasised that the AI Summit was receiving international recognition and appreciation from global leaders and technology figures.

“The AI Summit is being praised worldwide. From President Macron to the United Nations Secretary General to top tech company honchos, from Sam Altman to Sundar Pichai, everyone is praising it. Even Shashi Tharoor said the AI Summit was excellent,” he said.
