FIR Registered Over AI-generated Pics Of PM Modi, Amit Shah On Social Media
The Aam Aadmi Party, while commenting on the reports, said it is the BJP's "standard SOP" as elections draw closer.
An FIR has been registered against the Aam Aadmi Party for allegedly posting AI-generated photos and videos of PM Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah on the party's official X handle, PTI reported citing police sources.
The sources said the party posted the videos on January 10 and 13. One of the videos showed a scene from a 90s Bollywood film where the faces of villains were swapped with those of BJP leaders and the audio was changed to a conversation on Delhi polls, an officer said.
An FIR was filed and an investigation has been initiated into the matter, the officer said.
AAP Says It's BJP's 'Standard SOP'
The Aam Aadmi Party, while commenting on the reports, said it is the BJP's "standard SOP" as elections draw closer.
"False cases are being registered to divert attention from real issues concerning the people. Their next step is likely to target Chief Minister Atishi and Manish Sisodia with arrests and raids as part of their political vendetta," the party said in a statement.
"However, no FIR will be filed against BJP leaders who are blatantly involved in illegal activities like manipulating voter lists -- adding fake entries and deleting genuine voters - or those who are trying to buy votes by handing out cash and gifts," it alleged.
This "selective use of power and abuse of state machinery exposes BJP's fear of AAP's growing popularity and commitment to the public good", the AAP statement claimed.
