The posters have been put up in a ration shop and nearby tea shops in Elachi village of Attappadi Pudur panchayat in Palakkad district. The posters, which were both in Tamil and Malayalam, urged the people to boycott the “unnecessary” assembly elections. 

They asked the people to attack Coimbatore police stations whose personnel were colluding with wine shop owners and prohibition officials who harassed the Adivasis. They accused the Coimbatore police of supporting wine shops in Anaikatti. 

The police who rushed to the spot seized the posters and have begun investigation.
