The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has filed a police complaint against Karnataka Youth Congress secretary Bindu Gowda over an objectionable and derogatory social media post targeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
A complaint was lodged at the Malleswaram Police Station by the BJP’s social media wing, seeking legal action against the IYC Karnataka secretary.
The BJP said that an AI-generated semi-nude image of the Prime Minister was shared from a Facebook account named “Bindu Sira" on February 24. The party has alleged that the image linked the Prime Minister to the so-called “Epstein Files" and described the post as “indecent" and an insult to a constitutional office.
Karnataka BJP leaders have demanded that the state government take strict action and book the Congress functionary under relevant provisions related to hate speech and other offences.
The BJP termed the alleged post an attack not just on the Prime Minister personally but on the dignity of the constitutional position he holds.
This came amid ongoing controversy over Indian Youth Congress’s (IYC) “shirtless protest" inside Bharat Mandapam during the AI Impact Summit 2026.
What Happened In AI Summit?
India hosted the world’s largest artificial intelligence conclave, the AI Impact Summit-2026. The summit that began on February 16 has seen packed halls and long queues, as tech moguls, industry leaders, policymakers, founders, and technologists thronged the Bharat Mandapam.
Around 10 activists of the Congress’s youth wing had entered the AI Summit venue in New Delhi and staged a shirtless protest, raising slogans against Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the India-US trade deal. The protesters wore or carried white T-shirts printed with images of PM Modi and US President Donald Trump, along with slogans targeting the government.
The protest sparked a political row, with BJP leaders condemning it as “anti-national" and accusing the Congress of harming India’s global image, while the Congress defended the demonstration as legitimate democratic dissent reflecting youth anger.
