One poster says “Didi, we welcome you warmly in the Republic of India!" and she is seen marching with a drum in protest. The second poster requested her not to bring "dadagiri" (bullying tactics) to Delhi, and the third poster reads "Relax Didi, we are all safe here! It's a democracy" reported India Today.
These posters came post the recent tussle between the Modi and Mamata Banerjee government when she sat on a dharna in order to protest against the Modi government, accusing it of using the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to trouble opposition leaders.

Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
