Expressing concern over deteriorating law and order in UP, State president, Rastriya lok Dal (RlD), Munna Singh Chauhan said poor law and order was not only encouraging to breed corruption in the state but it also had caused the crime graph to soar up in the state.
He said incidents of murder, loot and rape in UP were unstoppable with each day such incidents were being reported. He alleged that corrupt leaders and bureaucrats having patronage of ruling government, were in limelight for their corrupt practices and the government had failed put a curb on them. He said that a scam of Rs 7 crore in distribution of flood-relief material had surfaced in Bahraich district recently after the alleged scam case involving NOIDA chief engineer Yadav Singh. Coming down heavily on Bagpat incident in which armed miscreants got their aide freed from police custody and also had looted AK-47 from policemen, he said the incident had caused a heavy dent to law and order front. He cited another incident of Jaluan in which miscreants set afire a man while describing the poor state of law and order in UP.
Criticising UP chief minister, Chauhan said the state government though had stopped allotting minister status to his relatives, it still was providing high class facilities to them. He said the state government should ensure establishment of rule of law in the state and it should take stern action against those involved in corruption without any partisan.
