Hyderabad, February 21 In response to the Youth Congress's protest at the AI Summit in Delhi, BRS Working President K T Rama Rao said on Saturday that using such global platforms for protests would project the country in a negative light internationally.
It is ironic that the Youth Congress workers staged the protest "precisely" when Telangana Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy was addressing the same AI Summit, he said.
"It is absolutely deplorable that members of the Youth Congress chose the AI Impact Summit 2026 as a venue for petty political theatrics," he said in a post on 'X'.
While differences of opinion are natural in a democracy, understanding where and how to protest is very important, he said.
There is a time and place for political dissent, and an international summit is certainly not one of them, Rao added.
