Cases of threatening calls and messages are becoming a norm ever since Modi government came to power in New Delhi. It surged however after BJP's victory in recently concluded Uttar Pradesh elections.
Guha's tweet came at the time when BJP MLA and Opposition Leader in Delhi Assembly Vijender Gupta called AG Noorani "anti-Nationa" and "pro-Pakistan" and slammed Delhi Chief Minister Kejriwal for sharing dias with him.
Kejriwal had invited Noorani for a function organised by Delhi government to commemorate Shaheed Diwas.
