DTC Orders Removal of Political Posters from Buses and Depots

The Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC) has instructed the removal of all political posters from its buses and depot premises following the resignation of Arvind Kejriwal as chief minister. The operation department directed regional and depot managers to ensure compliance and report back. Posters featured Kejriwal and Transport Minister Kailash Gahlot.

The Delhi Transport Corporation (DTC) has mandated the removal of all political posters and banners from its buses and depot premises. This comes in the wake of AAP leader Arvind Kejriwal stepping down from the post of Delhi Chief Minister, according to official statements.

Earlier this month, Kejriwal resigned, declaring he would only return as chief minister after receiving a 'certificate of honesty' from the public in the forthcoming Assembly elections.

In a memo dated September 27, the DTC's operations department ordered all regional and depot managers to immediately remove political posters and submit compliance reports. Posters featuring Kejriwal and Transport Minister Kailash Gahlot had been displayed asking drivers to follow lane discipline. A senior government official confirmed that any remaining posters have been removed in accordance with the directive.
