“There are some people who engage in caste politics for their own electoral gains. They divide the society. They dim the enthusiasm and excitement of festivals. The time has come to expose such people,” he said, ANI reported.
The Chief Minister emphasized the government’s zero-tolerance policy, stating that Uttar Pradesh is now riot-free and crime-free, and warned that anyone threatening the safety of women and businessmen will face severe punishment.
Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav has questioned the representation of PDA communities in the recent recruitment of constables in Uttar Pradesh.
“No government can do recruitments by tweaking the rules. The BJP levels allegations against us, so that questions on the count of PDA and who is snatching their rights are not asked. This is their propaganda. No one can do propaganda better than the BJP,” said Yadav, ANI reported.
