Patna : Unidentified men distributed posters in favour of suspended BJP spokesperson Nupur Sharma in Bihar’s Gopalganj district, an official said.
The posters, containing “I support Nupur Sharma” were distributed at several places and important Chowks, educational centres, parks and temples in the city.
Sources have said that it could be a handiwork of anti-social elements to create disturbance in the area. They probably pasted the posters on Sunday night. The Gopalganj administration, however, has now removed them.
The Muslim community of the district had asked for permission for a march against Nupur Sharma which was turned down by the district administration on Sunday.
The district administration is keeping a close tab on social media and is shortlisting the names and addresses of those who are active and are uploading posts in favour and against Nupur Sharma.
Earlier, similar posters were distributed and pasted at several places in Bhagalpur district as well.
