“Uttar Pradesh has become mafia-free: A practical reader guide

Asserting that Uttar Pradesh has become free from fear, mafia rule and lawlessness, chief minister Yogi Adityanath on Saturday warned that anyone attempting to undermine the law or threaten public security would face stringent action.

“Uttar Pradesh has become mafia-free. Without naming any political organisation, the chief minister accused certain groups of attempting to divide society along caste, regional and linguistic lines. “Those who do not like development, employment and an atmosphere of celebration will now try to divide society.

“The doors of jail and hell are open for those who try to flout the law and create a threat to security,” Adityanath said while addressing a gathering in Gorakhpur. He said there was no longer an atmosphere of hooliganism, anarchy or insecurity in the state. If anyone tries to raise their head again, they will be crushed,” he said. People must remain alert and cautious and recognise them as a gang of dacoits,” he said.

The chief minister was addressing a gathering after inaugurating the newly constructed Kalyan Mandapam in Basharatpur, Ward 80, Raptinagar.

He said the BJP-led double-engine government would not allow the poor, Dalits or deprived sections of society to be exploited or harassed, and assured that strict action would be taken against offenders.
