New Delhi: Bharatiya Janata Party workers showed black flags to Congress leader Rahul Gandhi in Mumbai on Saturday after Indian Youth Congress (IYC) workers staged a protest at the Artificial Intelligence Summit in New Delhi.Video of the incident showed workers shouting “Rahul Gandhi Haya Haya”.

The Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha arrived in Mumbai to appear before the Bhiwandi Additional Court in the 2014 RSS defamation case. Ahead of his appearance, the Bhiwandi local administration has stepped up security arrangements.Meanwhile, the Bharatiya Janata Party’s Yuva Morcha also held a protest against the Congress party in New Delhi.Around 10 IYC workers who tricked their way into the Bharat Mandapam and briefly raised slogans against Prime Minister Narendra Modi were detained on Friday, police said. Protesters entered the venue wearing or holding white T-shirts bearing images of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and US President Donald Trump, with slogans such as “India-US trade deal” and “PM compromised”, leading to heated disputes with some attendees.Officials said the detainees were being identified and appropriate legal action would be taken.The Indian Youth Congress defended the protests, calling them “the voice of millions of angry unemployed youth” and targeting the “compromising” Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The youth wing added that they had “no objection to the AI ​​summit” and “will no longer sit quietly.”The “topless” nature of the protests prompted a backlash, with BJP leaders blaming the Congress and Rahul Gandhi for orchestrating the riots. The BJP also termed the protest as a “topless, mindless and shameless” riot and claimed that the protest was planned at Rahul Gandhi’s residence.
