“Opponents are using AI to distort quotes of leaders like me, Amit Shah and J P Nadda to create social discord,” Mr. Modi said.
"By using technology, these people are making fake videos in my voice, which is creating danger. If you see any fake video, inform the police,” he said.
“There is a plan to create a big incident in next one month,” Mr. Modi claimed.
“It is our responsibility to save the society from such fake videos. I want to request ECI to take stern action against those behind such fake videos,” he said.
Mr. Modi said the Congress kept families of soldiers deprived of “one rank one pension” scheme for 40 years.
While Dalits all over India got reservation, Dalits in Kashmir were deprived of quota by Congress for vote bank politics, he said.
