Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Member of Parliament (MP) Anurag Thakur has criticized the Congress and the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) for using an artificial intelligence (AI)-generated video that depicted Prime Minister Narendra Modi with his late mother Heeraben Modi. The video, allegedly circulated by Bihar Congress, has sparked a controversy with Thakur calling it an insult to the Prime Minister's family. The incident follows a similar row from the Congress-led "Voter Adhikar Yatra" in Darbhanga, where an individual was caught on camera hurling abuses at the Prime Minister and his mother. Thakur also targeted the Congress for not issuing an apology despite repeated instances of alleged abuses directed at PM Modi and his mother during rallies in Bihar.
