Treble'd walls of Gurgaon

[Now with updates on three months spent watching walls getting painted, and in some cases re-painted]

A normal wall Graffiti in Gurgaon advertising land reclamation drive of humans against giant termites. 

But recently these advertisement walls have a new neighbor. Right next to that 'deemak ad' can now be found this
 'Graffiti is art not Vandalism - Treble'
From last one month these forms are sprouting (late at night) on walls of houses in Phase-III Gurgaon.
Each one is drawn at walls next to empty plots, house construction sites, places that would be hidden at night but in clear sight in daylight and easily visible from busy road. The unknown hand has picked quite a few good locations.

Pillar of Guru Dronacharya Station
A normal Pillar. At the same station.

Updates from wall in Phase-I. Missed catching the painter in action by a whisker. My office colleagues claim to have seen a skinny of kid of 15 or 16 painting this wall in broad daylight. They, like most dwellers of Gurgaon, thought it was just someone getting his wall 'beautified'. The thought that someone would spent his time painting walls of someone else never occurred to them.

(As I write this, I am told that walls are getting painted all over Gurgaon)
