Galgotias University: 'Representative ill-informed, not authorised to speak' on 'soccer drone' row

• Galgotias University issued a fresh statement regarding the 'soccer drone' controversy, stating the representative was ill-informed and unauthorized to speak to media.
• The statement follows a viral video of communications professor Neha Singh explaining an in-house 'soccer drone' and claiming its 'end-to-end engineering' was done at the university.
• The university clarified that Neha Singh was unaware of the product's technical origins and provided incorrect information 'in her enthusiasm of being on camera'.
• This incident follows a previous controversy where the university faced backlash for presenting a commercially available Chinese robodog as an in-house innovation.
• The university's stall at the AI Summit Expo was vacated by government order after the robodog controversy, which also featured Neha Singh showcasing the device.
