Karnataka BJP demands apology from Priyank Kharge over AI-generated image

Priyank Kharge, the IT Minister of Karnataka, shared an AI-generated image related to the Unnao rape case on social media.

The Karnataka BJP accused him of spreading fake news and misleading the public.

They demanded an apology from Kharge, claiming he mocked the 'Beti Bachao Beti Padhao' initiative.

Kharge responded by accusing the BJP of shielding perpetrators and not taking action against those accused of crimes.

The Delhi High Court had recently suspended the jail term of expelled BJP MLA Kuldeep Singh Sengar, who is involved in the Unnao rape case.

The CBI is challenging this decision in the Supreme Court.

The High Court's decision was based on the interpretation of the Pocso Act, which sets stricter conditions for aggravated offenses.

Kharge deleted the post with the image after the controversy.
