Mischief makers will face strict action: Adityanth

TIL Desk/National/Lucknow/ Facing criticism over the law and order situation, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath today said criminal elements, who had a free run over the last 15 years, were trying to create “mischief” and warned of strict action against those taking the law into their hands.

Addressing a function here, he claimed that the crime graph has come down after his government took charge and the situation will improve further in coming days. He said those violating the law will not be spared, regardless of their political affiliation.

“Our main priority is to establish rule of law in the state. I want to assure the people of the state that if someone tries to take the law into their hands, the government and the administration will deal with them firmly.

“Some people have been spoilt over the last fifteen years, and their habits will not change in a day. They are still trying to do mischief in some areas. “I want to warn them again that they should mend their ways or be ready to face the consequences. We will not let any farmer, labourer, trader or daughter suffer,” he said.
