Rijiju slams Cong over AI summit protest

NEW DELHI, FEB 21 (PTI):

Union minister Kiren Rijiju on Saturday accused the Congress of committing a “big sin” against the country by deploying its youth wing workers to hold a protest at India AI Impact Summit.
Terming it “shameful”, he alleged that the protest staged by Youth Congress workers at Bharat Mandapam on Friday was not a mistake but a well-thought-out conspiracy to malign India. Addressing a press conference at BJP HQ here, Rijiju said while the entire country is condemning what the Congress did at the summit, the leaders of the opposition party remain unapologetic.
