Members of the Indian Youth Congress staged a dramatic shirtless protest at the India AI Impact Summit at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi, raising slogans such as “PM is compromised” against Prime Minister Narendra Modi, alleging the government had compromised national interests and failed youth. Around 10 protesters were detained and taken to Tilak Marg police station; police said legal action will follow. The demonstrators briefly disrupted the high-profile international event attended by global delegates. The protest drew sharp criticism from the BJP, which condemned it as disruptive and politically motivated.
