Overview
- An FIR was registered at North Avenue police station under the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita following a complaint by BJP Delhi election cell convenor Sanket Gupta.
- The Bihar Congress posted a 36‑second clip on September 10 labeled “AI GENERATED” with the caption “Maa appears in sahab’s dreams,” portraying a dream in which a figure resembling Heeraben Modi rebukes a figure resembling the prime minister.
- BJP and NDA leaders condemned the video as “disgusting” and an insult to mothers, with figures including JP Nadda and Anurag Thakur warning of electoral consequences in Bihar.
- Congress leaders defended the clip as satire or parental advice and said it showed no disrespect, while the Bihar unit launched an internal inquiry to identify those responsible for creating and sharing it.
- The row follows an earlier Darbhanga incident where abuses toward the prime minister’s mother were alleged and an arrest was made, and police now say the AI video case is under investigation.
