CA court condemns the Yogi government for posting posters of protesters

No crime has been proved against many like me, yet the government has shown us the culprit: Sadaf Jafar

Allahabad, Ta. March 8, 2020, Sunday

The poster government, which is protesting the CAA in Uttar Pradesh, has deferred so that the entire matter has reached the Allahabad High Court. The High Court has criticized the government's move, saying that putting someone's posters in this way is a violation of their privacy rights. Also asked the government to remove these posters. However, the government replied that the court could not intervene in this matter.

On March 7, the Allahabad High Court took suo moto of the incident and ordered the Lucknow District Magistrate and Divisional Commissioner to be informed of the law under which these posters were installed. On Sunday, the matter postponed the hearing till March 9 after criticism of the government and the administration.

Chief Justice Govind Mathur and Ramesh Sinha objected to the posters when arguments were going on in the Allahabad High Court on Sunday and termed the government's decision as unfair. There is a kind of ramifications on a person's individual rights and freedoms. It was hoped that these posters would be removed soon.

While the arguments were underway, the advocate general on behalf of the government claimed that the names of these people were among the people involved in the violence and hence their posters and addresses and photographs were hoarded to the public for hoarding so that no one would tolerate such violence again.

Among the posters that have been planted are photographs and details of well-known social activist and Congress leader Sadaf Jaffer. How can our posters be made public in such a way that we are guilty?

"My bail order also says that there is no evidence of any of the charges against me," he said. The court took Suomoto on the whole matter and criticized the social media for hitting the government.

Former IPS officer SR Darapuri also criticized the government and said it was illegal to put posters with any personal information. Now there is a possibility that the High Court will give its final verdict on the ninth issue.
