BJYM slams NPCC for comparing AI Summit with CWG

Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha (BJYM) Nagaland state unit has strongly criticised the Nagaland Pradesh Congress Committee (NPCC) for drawing what it called a “misplaced and politically motivated” comparison between the India AI Impact Summit 2026 and the 2010 Commonwealth Games (CWG).
Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha state unit through its media cell described the AI Impact Summit 2026 as “a defining moment in India’s rise as a global leader in Artificial Intelligence.”
It highlighted the event’s scale—participation from 118 countries, over 20 Heads of Government, more than five lakh attendees—and its tangible outcomes, including infrastructure investment pledges exceeding $250 billion and around $20 billion in deep-tech venture commitments.
The BJP youth organization termed the NPCC’s comparison “intellectually dishonest” and maintained that the 2010 Commonwealth Games were widely criticised internationally for corruption, mismanagement, and national embarrassment.
It said that equating a corruption-marred sporting event with a forward-looking global technology summit was factually flawed and politically desperate.
The youth wing also condemned the shirtless protest staged by Congress members during the summit. BJYM unit described the protest as an “irresponsible act” that trivialised an international forum dedicated to global cooperation, innovation, and inclusive growth.
Acknowledging the democratic right to protest, BJYM unit asserted that such actions undermined India’s dignity on the world stage.
Attributing a phrase “Democracy is not about noise, it is about responsibility” to the Congress party, BJYM unit urged the Congress leadership to guide its Youth Wing toward mature, constructive political engagement rather than headline-grabbing theatrics.
The organisation asserted that national platforms showcasing India’s progress must rise above partisan politics. “When India stands tall on the global stage, unity should prevail over opportunism,” the BYYM stated.
