The BJP on Friday lashed out at an AI-generated video of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his mother shared by the Bihar Congress on its social media handle on X. The Congress, however, maintained that no disrespect had been shown towards the PM or his mother.
The video, shared by the state unit, shows Modi dreaming about his late mother, who is seen criticising him over his politics in poll-bound Bihar.
This comes days after a person who used derogatory language towards the PM’s mother during a Congress event in Darbhanga was arrested.
A Delhi BJP worker on Friday filed a police complaint seeking the registration of a case against Congress and its leaders over the video. Police said they were reviewing the matter though they had not registered an FIR yet.
Sharing the video, BJP national spokesperson Shehzad Poonawala, in a post on Instagram, said, “Bihar Congress crossed all limits with a disgusting video. This party has become gaaliwadi instead of Gandhiwadi… mahila aur maatru shakti ka apman is Congress ki pehchaan… shameful… abuse Bihar as bidi and abuse a person no longer with us.”
BJP leader Anurag Thakur told reporters, “RJD and Congress have shown how low politics can go… It’s disgusting and shameful… they will face a humiliating defeat in the coming assembly polls.”
Union Minister Piyush Goyal called the video the “distorted mentality of Congress.”

“Frustrated after being repeatedly rejected by the public, Congress, with a distorted mentality, is now set on creating new records of baseness every day,” he said in a post on X.
Parliamentary Affairs Minister Kiren Rijiju said on X: “No wonder Congress is losing elections. There is a limit to falling into inhumanity. Congress has lost its credibility and the trust of the people.”
Congress leader Pawan Khera said: “What is their objection? Just because a mother is trying to educate her son to do something right, where is the disrespect? This is neither disrespectful to the mother, whom we respect dearly, nor to the son.”
