Delhi Police arrested Youth Congress president Uday Bhanu Chib over the shirtless protest at the AI Impact Summit. He was questioned for nearly 20 hours before his arrest. Police say he planned the protest and did not cooperate. He faces charges of criminal conspiracy and obstructing public servants. The case is now with the Crime Branch. Police told the court that the protest aimed to damage India’s image before foreign guests. Chib’s lawyer said he was not present at the protest and gave no instructions. Congress leaders called the arrest unfair and said peaceful protest is part of democracy.
