Overview
- The Bihar Congress posted a 36‑second clip on September 10, labelled “AI GENERATED,” portraying the prime minister dreaming of his late mother rebuking his politics, referencing demonetisation, filmed rituals and alleged “vote chori.”
- Delhi BJP worker Sanket Gupta filed a complaint at North Avenue police station; a senior Delhi Police officer said no FIR has been registered and an inquiry is underway.
- The Bihar Congress said it has launched an internal investigation to identify and penalise those who created and shared the video.
- BJP and NDA leaders including Ravi Shankar Prasad, Anurag Thakur and Radha Mohan Das Agrawal denounced the video as indecent, with some indicating plans to approach the Election Commission.
- Congress spokesperson Pawan Khera defended the post as a mother offering guidance rather than disrespect, as the episode reignited tensions linked to an earlier Darbhanga rally controversy ahead of the Bihar polls.
