Hitting out at Samajwadi Party state president of BJP lakshmi Kant Bajpai said that ruling party workers were letting loose a reign of terror and intimidating people by grabbing their lands and other property.
“These are mere allegations but statement of fact which have been approved by Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav himself. This shows party workers are ruling the roast while police has remained a mute spectator,’ Dr Bajpai said while addressing people during anti-Government protest held at Sitapur on Tuesday. Today was the last day of BJP’s two-day anti-government protest in which senior leaders, MPs and legislators took part in agitations across Uttar Pradesh.
Party chief said that law and order in the state has gone from bad to worse. The ministers are found involved in the murder of journalists while senior leaders like Tora Ram justify rape of women.
“The state government has failed to control these crimes because it does not have the political will to fight criminals. How can CM act when his own party leaders and workers are involved in crimes at the district and village level,” he asked. “The people are living under the shadow of fear. They cannot go to police because it cannot act against SP party leaders. Thus, one can understand the agony of the people,” he said. BJP state chief said government has also failed to protect the interest of farmers. It has so far not cleared the cane dues. The Modi Government has extended a help of Rs 6000 crore still state government has failed to clear the dues, he said. later he submitted a memorandum to the District Magistrate.
