PM Modi Fires at Congress Over Protest

Prime Minister Narendra Modi strongly criticised the Indian National Congress over protests that took place during the AI summit held at Bharat Mandapam in New Delhi. Members of the Indian Youth Congress staged a semi-nude demonstration raising issues such as unemployment and inflation, which Modi said tarnished India’s image on an international platform. He described the incident as a reflection of political frustration at a time when the country is progressing toward development.

Addressing a public meeting in Meerut, the Prime Minister said such actions during a global event meant to showcase India’s achievements were unfortunate and inappropriate. He urged political parties to contribute constructively to national growth rather than undermine the country’s reputation, and also thanked allied parties that condemned the protest. Modi emphasised that national interest must take precedence over political motives.
