New Delhi, 24 February (H.S.): Patiala House Court's Judicial Magistrate First Class Ravi ordered four days' police custody Tuesday for Indian Youth Congress national president Uday Bhanu Chib in the February 20 shirtless protest disrupting India AI Impact Summit at Bharat Mandapam.

Delhi Police sought seven days, alleging Chib orchestrated the stunt—supplying logistics for activists Krishna Hari, Kundan Yadav, Ajay Kumar, and Narasimha Yadav—who scuffled with cops (injuring three), waving printed T-shirts with anti-Modi messages after ditching initial black umbrella/sticker plan.

Police invoked rioting, assault on public servants; prior February 21, court granted five-day custody to four activists. Chib summoned Monday, arrested post-interrogation; case transferred to Crime Branch Inter-State Cell for multi-state angles. Youth Congress claims voicing public grievances against PM.
