Galgotias University's troubles at the India AI Impact Summit deepened after reports emerged that the government asked them to vacate. "We have not been informed yet that we have to vacate," a Galgotias professor told ANI. The controversy expanded beyond the Chinese Unitree robodog "Orion" when netizens exposed a second misrepresentation in which a drone the university claimed to have built from scratch, later identified as a commercially available Striker V3 ARF retailing at Rs 20,000–30,000. The university had also claimed Rs 350-crore investment in AI infrastructure during its presentation. Social media users accused the institution of deliberate fraud, with one writing: "Who are you trying to hoodwink with this statement?"
