Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav said on Thursday that in the past seven years, there is no rule of law left in Uttar Pradesh in the BJP regime.
“The Chief Minister may claim to modernise the police force, but in reality it is nothing more than a sham. How can the BJP government, which destroyed the state-of-the-art police response system setup during the Samajwadi government out of vengeance, be expected to make the police force technically smart, efficient and capable?
“The chief minister’s claim of crime control has been proven false. The BJP government has failed on every front,” Yadav said in a statement issued here.
He said there is no rule of law left in UP in the BJP regime.
Yadav’s reaction came on Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s statement earlier in the day that the rule of law is fundamental to good governance and the state police has excelled in maintaining it.
Adityanath said this while flagging off the upgraded police response vehicles (PRVs) in the second phase of UP-112 from his official residence here.
