Assam BJP president Dilip Saikia criticized the recent 'shirtless protest' by the Youth Congress at the AI Impact Summit in Delhi, labeling it as a global embarrassment for India.

Saikia alleged that the protest was conducted under the direct instruction of Rahul Gandhi, aiming to oppose the India-US trade deal and showcase dissent against government initiatives.

In response, BJP's youth wings coordinated statewide protests to expose what they termed as the 'Congress' anti-national stance', following the arrests of four Youth Congress workers involved in the protest.
