‘Nepal-like protest, conspiracy’: Delhi Police tells court on AI Summit shirtless Youth Congress protesters

Delhi Police have described the recent shirtless protest by Youth Congress members at the AI Summit as a coordinated effort to tarnish India's international reputation. During court proceedings seeking the remand of the protesters, police argued that the demonstration mirrored tactics used in Nepal, suggesting a deliberate attempt to create unrest and defame the nation on a global stage. The protest, which attracted attention for its unconventional approach, raised questions about the motivations behind such actions and the implications for India's image abroad. This incident has sparked discussions about the intersection of political expression and national pride, as well as the responsibilities of protestors in a democratic society. The Delhi Police's claims highlight the growing tension between political dissent and the narrative of national integrity, which is becoming increasingly relevant in India's evolving political landscape.
