lucknow: Uttar Pradesh Congress Committee (UPCC) strongly criticised open abuses against Government officials hurled by State Minister Radha Shyam Singh and demanded his immediate arrest in the matter besides sacking him from the post.
“It seems that that there is no law for the Samajwadi Party leaders and Ministers hence they openly used muscle power, threatened and abuse the government officials just after anyone dared to refuse to dance to their diktats”, asserted Amarnath Agarwal, senior spokesman of the UPCC media cell. Reacting to Singh’s statement here on Monday afternoon, Agarwal said that this is not the first case but a series of Ministers or those enjoying Minister’s status in Akhilesh’s ministry had taken law in their hand resulting into ‘Jungle Raj’ in the State.
Agarwal also criticises Chief Minister for adopting double standards. “Why SP leaders were at the maximum removed from the post and no further action has been taken against them for issuing threats to Government officials or abusing them”, questioned Amarnath.
