CNN Central News & Network–ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: During a high-profile AI Summit event, members of the Youth Congress staged a dramatic shirtless protest, raising anti-government slogans and criticizing Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s policies. The protest created a brief disruption at the venue, drawing the attention of security officials and media personnel present at the summit. According to police sources, nearly ten Youth Congress workers were detained for breaching security norms and attempting to disturb the proceedings.
The demonstration was reportedly organized to highlight concerns over unemployment, digital inequality, and alleged government failures in technology-driven development. Protesters claimed that while artificial intelligence and digital initiatives are being promoted aggressively, pressing youth-related issues such as job creation and skill development remain unresolved.
Authorities swiftly intervened to restore order and ensure that the summit continued without further interruption. Officials confirmed that the detained individuals were later taken for questioning. The incident has sparked political reactions, with ruling party leaders criticizing the protest as disruptive, while Congress representatives defended it as a democratic expression of dissent.
The episode has once again underlined rising political tensions around youth employment, digital policy, and governance narratives in the country.
