Beware before posting anything objectionable against Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath or State Government as it might land you in jail.
The law enforcing agencies as well as Government seems to have geared up to initiate action against misutilising the social media. After suspension of an officer of Indian Police Servcies, Himanshu Kumar, for his post on twitter accusing Government for initiating action just against a particular caste officers, lucknow police registered a criminal case against senior lawyer Prashant Bhushan for his objectionable posts hitting religious sentiments. Besides, arrest of a youth in Gaziabad now a corporator paid the price with his arrest for uploading objectionable picture of Chief Minister on his Facebook profile.
Reports said Corporator of loni area in Ghaziabad, Raj Kumar Chauhan, had uploaded an objectionable picture of Chief Minister on his Facebook account, after which district coordinator of Hindu Yuva Vahini, Satyendra Bansal objected and went ahead with registration of case against Chauhan on Wednesday. The cops taking serious cognisanse of the matter, had arrested Chauhan for trying to breach peace through objectionable post and sent him to jail.
It may be mentioned that earlier on Rahat Khan, also of Ghaziabad was arrested after he too posted objectionable picture of Yogi Adityanath. He still not got bail in the matter. In the Prashant Bhushan case, while lucknow police claimed to be making investigation after registering a case, the lawyer had withdrawn his objectionable tweet and apologised for hurting sentiments of one religion.
