Patna High Court Orders Congress to Remove Controversial AI Video

The Patna High Court issued a directive on Wednesday for the Congress party to remove an AI-generated video from its social media channels. This video controversially depicted Prime Minister Narendra Modi alongside his late mother.

The move came after Acting Chief Justice P B Baijanthri reviewed a petition submitted by Vivekanand Singh. Prominent individuals and institutions such as Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, the Union government, and the Election Commission were listed as respondents in the case.

The court's decision mandates the immediate withdrawal of the contentious video. It also involves serving notices to Rahul Gandhi, Facebook, Twitter, and Google. The video had been previously uploaded by the Bihar Congress on its social media platform X, sparking significant attention and criticism.
