New Delhi, 20 February (H.S.): Central ministers have issued scathing condemnations of the Indian Youth Congress protest that unfolded during the AI Summit at Bharat Mandapam in Delhi on Friday.They characterized the incident as utterly shameful, attributing it to the Congress party's deepening desperation.

Defence Minister Rajnath Singh stated on X that the Youth Congress's inappropriate conduct was not only regrettable but also an attempt to tarnish India's global reputation. He vehemently condemned the Congress for this act.

Whenever India advances on the world stage, the Congress prioritizes political gains over standing with national interests, Singh remarked. Placing partisan politics above the country's prestige and honor is profoundly distressing.

He added that the people of India clearly discern who is committed to strengthening the nation and who repeatedly seeks to blemish its image.

Union Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal described the episode as a vivid manifestation of Congress arrogance and frustration. He asserted that targeting the government by humiliating India is Rahul Gandhi and the opposition's modus operandi.They spread falsehoods about recent trade agreements to impede India's progress, Goyal said, while their activists marched shirtless at a prestigious AI Summit to embarrass 1.4 billion Indians on the global stage. This disruptive tactic merely exposes the paucity of foresight in you and your party.

Electronics and IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw observed that Congress resorts to such antics whenever something positive occurs. They must be terrified at how such a grand event materialized, drawing youth from every corner of the country, he noted.Conferences like this should remain insulated from politics; if Congress persists in obstructing every endeavor, God help us.

Science and Technology Minister of State Dr. Jitendra Singh remarked that the incident reflects Congress's profound desperation and sense of entitlement. He questioned Rahul Gandhi: Is tarnishing India's global stature your notion of constructive opposition to attack the government?

Misinformation about recent trade deals is being peddled to halt India's advancement, yet your party members marched shirtless at a prestigious AI Summit, as if to project a negative image of 1.4 billion Indians worldwide. Such a strategy only highlights a lack of visionary thinking for the nation, Singh elaborated.

Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju declared that Congress is becoming a national embarrassment in its own right. This is a global AI summit, not a BJP rally—Congress has itself become the 'national shame.'

Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta labeled it an exceedingly disgraceful Congress spectacle. She contended that the commotion staged before foreign guests was a premeditated conspiracy by Congress to undermine India's credibility.Rahul Gandhi's negative leadership appears hell-bent on sullying the country's image through a calculated strategy, shaming every Indian proud of national progress.

The public witnesses India emerging as a 'technology powerhouse' on one hand, while Congress devolves into a monument of negativity and street theatrics on the other, Gupta concluded.
