Minister Accuses Congress of Posting Fake AI Crowd Photo
Listen to the story
Kiren Rijiju is a minister in India. He made fun of the Congress party.
Congress shared a photo online. The photo showed a big crowd at a rally. The rally was called 'Chalo Dilli'. It was held by the INDIA bloc. This is a group of political parties.
The photo was from Ramlila Maidan. This is a famous open space in Delhi. People use it for big public events.
Fact-checkers looked at the photo. They said it was made by AI. AI means computer-made, not real.
Rijiju said Congress could not even fake it right. This means they could not make a good fake photo.
This caused an online fight between the two political sides.
