The Delhi Police has registered an FIR in connection with posters showing a photograph of Prime Minister Narendra Modi with fugitive businessmen Nirav Modi and Vijay Mallya that appeared in various parts of central Delhi, an officer said on Wednesday.
The posters bore the legend “Modi ka asli pariwar” (Modi royal family) with “Bhartiya Yuva Congress” written at the bottom.
A senior police officer said a case had been registered under the Delhi Prevention of Defacement of Property Act against unknown persons at the Tughlak Road police station and the posters had been removed.
The case was registered following a complaint by a Delhi Municipal Council official on Tuesday, he said.
Police said the posters did not bear the name of the publisher or the person who posted them.
Prime Minister Modi on Monday said 140 crore Indians are his “family”, as he mounted a counter-offensive over RJD’s Lalu Prasad’s jibe at him.
The BJP supported its leader by launching a ‘Modi Ka Parivar’ campaign on social media.
As several BJP leaders added “Modi Ka Parivar” in their bio on social media, the Congress on Tuesday asked the party if fugitive businessmen Nirav Modi and Vijay Mallya were also part of this family.
