How Yogi Adityanath established rule of law in Uttar Pradesh in last 4 years?
Those who grew up in 90s era will recall the Gundaraj which prevailed then:
-Criminals ran the show
-Mafia became lawmakers
-Rioters roamed free
-Police officers hounded for action on criminals
Every tender, contract, govt job was virtually decided by Crime syndicate.
Contrast this with the situation today:
-Criminals cancelling bail/ parole
-Mafias crossing over to other states
-Rioters offering to pay fine for loss
-Gundas surrendering to be inside jails
-Romios disappearing from nukkads
-Tenders being decided transparently
-No corruption in government jobs
-No cut money for welfare schemes
-Communal riots stopped completely
-Illegal slaughterhouses closed
-Ransom, kidnapping down
How this happened? Let’s see some facts. In last 4 years:
~ 24 mafia dons put behind bars
~ 135 notorious criminals killed
~ 190 arm licenses cancelled
~ 534 booked under NSA
~ 1000 crore property seized
~ 3699 arrested in gangster act
~ 11930 cases filed in gangster act
And to achieve that, state govt established:
~ 29 new police chowki
~ 59 new police stations
~ 4 new women police stations
~ 4 new economic offence units
~ 10 new vigilance units
~ 16 new cyber crime police stations
~ 69 new fire stations
The strength of Police forces in the state almost doubled in last 4 years:
~ Police was working with half of its strength for many years
~ The strength of Police force in 2017 was almost 1.5 lakhs
~ 1.37 lakhs recruitment done in last 4 years - transparent & corruption free
~ Anti Romeo Squad established in each police station
~ Anti human trafficking police stations established
~ Anti conversion ordinance to stop love j!had crimes
~ Electricity theft control police stations in each district
~ Women help desk in each of 1535 police stations
~ 218 POCSO courts for fast track trial
UP100 helpline converted to 112UP helpline which is now integrated with
~ 1090
~ 181
~ 102
~ GRP helpline
Today this is the single helpline for people of the state to report any issue- accidents, fire, distress calls, emergency etc.

Just few years back, some of these used to sit inside Vidhan Sabha despite having non-bailable warrants in their names. That free run of Gundaraj has ended now - kudos to Yogi Adityanath!

For the perspective, UP has a population of more than 230 millions, double that of Maharashtra - second most populous state & equivalent to Brazil as a country - sixth most populous country in the world.
