Posters removed from 327 Metro sites, 53 FIR lodged

So far, 327 sites across the metro network have been cleared of illegal posters and banners. The campaign marks a significant step toward giving the capital a cleaner and dignified look.

To maintain the cleanliness and aesthetics of the capital, Gupta had earlier instructed officials from all concerned departments to take strict legal action under the Anti-Defacement Act against anyone who puts up unauthorised posters and banners on public property.

According to the information provided by the Delhi Metro, unauthorised posters and graffiti are being swiftly removed. The contractors have been instructed to restore the walls to their original condition. In addition, legal action is being initiated under the Anti-Defacement Act 2007 against those responsible.
