The AAP today demanded "deterrent action" against miscreants belonging to a fringe right wing organisation for allegedly defacing signage boards with Muslim names in the national capital.
The party also blamed the Narendra Modi government for encouraging right wing groups who have been "talibanising" the country.
"The right-wing group which dared to do the horrible act undoubtedly draws its power and strength from the BJP led coalition in power. Ever since BJP came to power at centre, several such acts of radical elements hijacking the law and playing moral police have come to the light," the party said in a statement.
It added that the government at the centre has played a "mute spectator" to these groups and their acts of violence and have either being not responded or retaliated meekly to these criminal acts.
"The Modi government is helping right wing groups in talibanising the country and the flourishing of such groups are an example of this," the party said in a statement.
