A political controversy erupted after members of the Indian Youth Congress staged a shirtless protest at the AI summit in Delhi, raising slogans against the Centre over a reported trade deal with the United States. Speaking to NDTV, Youth Congress President Uday Bhanu Chib defended the protest, stating that it would not damage India's global image and that raising current national issues was necessary. He maintained that the protest was carried out legally and with due permission. Uday Bhanu also questioned the detention of party workers, claiming they had been held for hours without being formally taken to the police station.
