The India AI Impact Summit in Delhi turned contentious as Youth Congress demonstrations elicited fierce backlash from power-wielding Bihar politicians. Vijay Sinha, Bihar’s Deputy CM, quipped that Gandhi’s Congress is a relic, replaced by an entity swayed by overseas agendas, allergic to nationalism.
With international dignitaries and media in attendance, the protests painted an unflattering picture of India. Minister Dilip Jaiswal spotlighted Congress’s leadership crisis: seniors invoke Nehru or Indira but reject Rahul’s ‘Gandhian’ tag, signaling his anti-patriotic stance.
Sanjay Singh lambasted the move to disgrace the nation publicly. Raj Bhushan Choudhary flagged dangers from foreign settlers draining resources and threatening security.
JD(U) spokesperson Rajiv Ranjan Prasad dubbed it a pre-planned fiasco that recoiled on Congress. BJP’s Tarun Chugh thundered against Youth Congress’s ‘foreign toolkit’ antics undermining India’s AI spotlight.
RP Singh connected dots to past incidents like Umar Khalid’s anti-CAA rally during Trump’s visit, intent on international humiliation. ‘Rahul’s pattern of damaging India’s repute is clear,’ he asserted.
Amid celebrations of India’s tech leap, this political theater reveals stark contrasts: BJP champions progress, while Congress faces accusations of sabotage. The summit, meant for collaboration, became a battleground, questioning opposition’s strategies in India’s growth story.
