The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has termed the police action as dictatorship. The party wrote on its official Twitter handle – The dictatorship of the Modi government is at its peak. What is so objectionable in the poster that Modi ji registered 100 cases. PM Modi you may not know, but India is a democratic country, why so much fear from the poster?

The Aam Aadmi Party will hold a protest on Thursday over the poster. Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal, Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann will also participate in this protest at Delhi's Jantar Mantar. According to a news agency, Special Commissioner of Police Dipendra Pathak said, "Two printing press firms had received an order to make 50,000 such posters. Employees associated with the companies put up many such posters in different areas of the city from late Sunday night to Monday morning."

After that these posters were given to different people to paste on the night of March 19. The work of pasting the posters continued till the morning of March 20.

According to news report, a similar case came to light two years ago, when posters criticizing Modi were put up during the Covid vaccination drive in Delhi. Then Delhi Police arrested 30 people while 25 F.I.R. were registered. During the election of the standing committee of Delhi MCD, commotion was witnessed in the house over the matter. After this, the Delhi High Court stayed the Mayor's orders to re-elect the MCD Standing Committee. On the other hand, a poster war started on social media between Aam Aadmi Party and BJP on this issue.
