A Delhi court remanded Indian Youth Congress National President Udai Bhanu Chib to four days’ police custody in connection with the India AI Impact Summit protest. Police alleged he was involved in planning and monitoring the demonstration, calling it a “case of conspiracy.”
A Delhi court granted five days’ police custody to four IYC workers arrested for protesting inside Bharat Mandapam during the AI Impact Summit 2026. The court ruled that their actions were not protected dissent but a serious threat to public order and India’s diplomatic image.
The Delhi High Court has permitted lawyers and litigants to appear via video conferencing from February 16 to 23 due to the AI Impact Summit and Bar Council of Delhi elections. The court will continue functioning in hybrid mode, making virtual appearance optional during this period.
