‘Shirtless’ protest at AI Summit: Delhi Police arrests Youth Congress president Uday Bhanu Chib
Delhi Police have arrested Uday Bhanu Chib, the Indian Youth Congress president, in connection with a shirtless protest staged by IYC members at the AI Impact Summit last week. This brings the total number of arrests to eight, following the detention of Ritik alias Monty Shukla from Uttar Pradesh and the arrest of seven other IYC workers earlier. The incident has sparked political debate, with the BJP calling it an act that tarnishes India's image while the IYC defends it as a peaceful demonstration.
