Youth Congress protest at AI summit inspired by Nepal’s Gen Z agitation, Delhi Police tells court

A Delhi court on Saturday sent four Indian Youth Congress workers to five days of police custody in connection with a protest at the venue of the India AI Impact Summit, ANI reported. The court also rejected the bail applications of all four accused.

The Delhi Police had told the court that the protest was part of a “larger conspiracy” and claimed it was inspired by Nepal’s recent Gen Z-led agitation, Times Now reported. It alleged that the demonstration was a pre-planned attempt to disrupt the high-profile event at Bharat Mandapam.

The four persons accused in the case, Krishna Hari, Kundan Yadav, Ajay Kumar and Narasimha Yadav, were produced before Judicial Magistrate Ravi, PTI reported. Kumar is from Uttar Pradesh and Narasimha Yadav is from Telangana, while Hari and Kundan Yadav are from Bihar.

The police had sought five days of custody for the four workers, who were arrested on Friday after they held a protest during the summit. The group shouted slogans against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and held placards alleging that he was “compromised”.
