Aam Aadmi Party asked – what is objectionable in the poster
Here, the Aam Aadmi Party has termed the police action a 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 got 100 FIRs lodged for putting it up? You probably do not know PM Modi, but India is a democratic country, why so much fear of a poster?
