Delhi government today put up posters of A P J Abdul Kalam along with his inspirational quotes as tribute to the former President.

The move came a day after AAP-government decided to withdraw an aggressive ad campaign as a mark of respect to Kalam, who passed away suddenly in Shillong on Monday.

The new posters that have been put up outside Delhi Secretariat mentions Kalam's famous quote "Dream is not the thing you see in sleep but is that thing that doesn't let you sleep."

Yesterday, Delhi government said it has instructed to remove displays or advertisements from outdoor sites as a mark of respect to the departed soul.
 

The latest advertisement targeted Prime Minister Narendra Modi, requesting him to allow the Delhi government to function.

"Prime Minister Sir, Please, let Delhi government work," read Delhi government previous posters.

However, Delhi government has given no timeline when these advertisements would be changed.
