The support continued as another fan wrote, "#IstandWithSonuSood really very very sad.. we have proved again that people who help people who care people who gave should not be respected shame on us.. I'm with him no matter what (sic)."
Commenting on the search operation conducted by the IT department, Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) Spokesperson Raghav Chadha stated that this is nothing but a "witch hunt" by an insecure government toward a great philanthropist.
Stating the same issue, AAP MLA Atishi questioned whether serving those in need was a crime?
Atishi tweeted, "The 'survey' of actor-and-philanthropist @SonuSood by the IT Dept is a clear message by BJP that they will victimise anyone who does good work for the country? Was it a crime for @SonuSood to help migrants during the lockdown? Was it a crime for him to help those in difficulty?"
Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal had lately announced actor Sonu Sood as the brand ambassador for his government's mentorship program for school students.
