Uday Bhanu Chib, the National President of the Indian Youth Congress, was granted bail by a Delhi court after being arrested in connection with a 'shirtless protest' at the India AI Impact Summit in New Delhi. The protest, staged by Indian Youth Congress members, involved displaying anti-Narendra Modi slogans. The India===Delhi Police had sought a seven-day extension of Chib's police custody, but the court rejected the plea, citing insufficient reasons. Chib was released on a surety bond of Rs 50,000 and ordered to surrender his passport and electronic devices. The event sparked political debate, with the India===Bharatiya Janata Party criticizing the protest and the India===Indian National Congress defending it.
