Protest Against India's Achievements
Reacting to the protest by Indian Youth Congress workers at Bharat Mandapam in Delhi, BJP National Spokesperson Shahzad Poonawala said that Congress has once again proven that for them, AI is not Ambitious India, Artificial Intelligence, or Aspirational India. For them, AI is anti-India. This is not the INC, this is the ANC, the anti-National Congress.
AI Summit is being praised worldwide
Everyone from President Macron to the United Nations Secretary General, to top tech company leaders, from Sam Altman to Sundar Pichai, is praising it.
Even Shashi Tharoor said that the AI Summit was excellent. However, the Congress party is protesting at the behest of Rahul Gandhi. He said that this is a characterless, brainless, and emotionless protest. This is not a protest against the BJP, this is not a protest against the PM, this is a protest against India's achievements.
Summary
At the time of the protest, many prominent figures and delegates from India and abroad were present at the summit. Youth Congress workers suddenly approached the main hall with banners and posters. Security personnel immediately swung into action, detained the protesters, and escorted them out of the premises.
