The police is reportedly looking into a complaint of sedition that has been made against some unknown persons who allegedly wrote anti-Army slogans and drew anti-Army pictures on the wall of the Delhi Secretariat.
One of the drawings shows an Army boot stepping on a man with the slogan “Coffin Army” while another has a skull wearing an Army cap with the slogan “Stop Cannibalism”.
Even as three separate complaints were lodged in this respect against unknown persons by a Delhi-based lawyer and RTI activist Vivek Garg, the Delhi police is yet to take any action.
Speaking to this newspaper, a senior police official who refused to be quoted said that he was not aware about the incident and the police complaint. “The matter is not in my knowledge,” he said, indicating that the police will look into the matter if any complaint was registered.
Speaking to this newspaper, Mr Garg said that the matter was very serious and the offence was “anti-national”. “The offence is a deep-rooted conspiracy to wage a war against the state as well as an offence of sedition. If such kind of anti-national offence is not stopped at this stage and the accused are not punished, there is apprehension that the accused will commit similar offences at other places which can badly disturb the peace and harmony of the country,” read the complaint. Mr Garg has alleged that people who have links with terrorist outfits and Pakistan’s ISI could be behind such incident. The incident has also exposed a major security lapse as the government and private security agencies.
A police source said that whoever wrote and drew such paintings had a bad intention. The source said that the persons behind the incident must have an ulterior motive as they dared to write and draw such thing on the wall of a government building which is guarded by over a 12 security agencies. Mr Garg said that both the slogans on the wall were defamatory about the Indian Army.
