NEW DELHI,MAR 22 : The Delhi Police has registered over 100 FIRs after thousands of posters seeking the removal of Prime Minister Narendra Modi were found in the national capital. An order for one lakh such posters was given to two printing presses, sources told India Today.

On Tuesday, a van was also intercepted by the Delhi Police and over 10,000 posters were seized. The name of the printing press did not feature in any of these posters.

The ‘Modi hatao desh bachao’ posters, pasted on the walls in some parts of the national capital, have since been removed.

“Delhi Police registered 100 FIRs while 6 people were arrested for objectionable posters, including those against PM Narendra Modi across the city. The posters didn’t have details of the printing press. The FIR was filed under sections of the Printing Press Act and Defacement of property Act,” Special CP Deependra Pathak told news agency ANI.

Special CP Deependra Pathak told ANI that the van was intercepted and few arrests were made as soon as it left the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) office.

Responding to the crack down on anti-Modi posters, the AAP accused the Union government of “dictatorship” and asked what was objectionable about the posters.

“The dictatorship of the Modi government is at its peak. What is so objectionable in this poster that Modi ji filed 100 FIRs? PM Modi, you probably do not know, but India is a democratic country. So scared of one poster! Why,” the AAP said in a tweet.
