Lucknow: In line with the BJP's election manifesto, is to ensure Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has directed police officials to be vigilante and act swiftly on cases related to crime against women.
From day one of assuming office, the UP CM has been in action and taking some swift decisions to ensure law and order in the state.
When a family from Kanpur tweeted to Uttar Pradesh CM seeking action on a molestation case after failing to get a satisfactory response from the police officials, Yogi Adityanath ordered a swift and proper action against the accused.
The shameful incident happened on the day of Holi festival in Kalyanpur area. Some local youths, in an inebriated state, barged into a house and started molesting a woman and her daughter. The youths physically abused the husband when he tried to stop them.
The husband approached Kalyanpur police station where the police filed a case under the charges of assault and abuse under IPC. However, the complainant alleging that the police were "lackadaisical" in their probe tweeted his grievance to the DGP and the Chief Minister's Office asking for their help in the case.
