Demanding Centre’s intervention in Uttar Pradesh, BSP chief Mayawati said that jungle raj prevails in the state where goons, mafia and criminals are calling the shot while administration remains a mute spectator.
''The criminals are having a field day in the present regime as mafias and goondas are running a parallel government ,'' she said while addressing party leaders, co-ordinators, MPs and MlAs of western UP in a meeting held here on Sunday. She said the rule of the land has ended and it is evident the way former party legislator Sarvesh Kumar Singh alias Ceepu was killed in Azamgarh. "The criminals are calling the shot in this state as "jungle raj" prevails," she said.
Mayawati has directed the party MPs and legislators to raise peoples' issue in a big way during the coming monsoon season of both the Parliament and the Uttar Pradesh assembly. ''It is the right time for the Centre to intervene as jungle raj prevails in the state and people are frustrated with the Samajwadi Party government," BSP leader said. Former UP Chief Minister also alleged that the present SP government was biased in implementation of projects as people of a particular community are being benefited while the rest are neglected.
''The people in the state are annoyed with the act of the government to promote a particular community and now every law and government order is revolved to them,'' she said. The BSP leader also took the report of each west UP districts from the leaders and asked them to be in touch with the people to seek their support for the coming lok Sabha elections.
During the meeting, the leaders apprised Mayawati about the deteriorating law and order situation besides bad conditions of the government hospitals and the power crisis. She also warned the party leaders to be beware about the conspiracy of the ruling Samajwadi party to benefit the BJP in the coming lok Sabha elections by creating communal disturbances in Uttar Pradesh.
She said there is a conspiracy to trigger communal disturbances in the state to divide the voters on communal line before the lok Sabha elections. ''The recent spurt of communal violence and other criminal activities in the state is a clear indication of the conspiracy of the SP government,' she said. She warned the party leaders to be cautious as communal violence could happen in their areas during the coming festival season starting from Shravan next week.
