Lucknow, October 28 (HS). National President of Samajwadi Party (SP) and former Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav has said that the police system of the state has been ruined under the BJP government. The police are killing people instead of protecting them. Uttar Pradesh is making new records every year in terms of custodial deaths under the BJP government. At the behest of BJP leaders and workers, the police is torturing innocent people. The behavior of the police under this government has become exploitative and tyrannical. The poor people are helpless. Every day the bad image of police comes to the fore in the state. At some places the police are looting, at some places they are torturing and at some places they are killing.
The SP President said that in a place like the capital Lucknow, two youths have died in police beating in the last fortnight. The police has become completely autocratic in this government. The public has lost trust in the BJP government and the police. Deaths in police custody have been increasing every year since the BJP government came to power in the state.
In Uttar Pradesh, 451 people died in police custody in 2021. In 2022, this figure will increase to 501. The number of deaths in police custody is continuously increasing. Aman Gautam died in Vikas Nagar due to police beating two weeks ago in Lucknow. Mohit Pandey died in Chinhat after being beaten by Lucknow Police on Saturday. The BJP government and the police are completely insensitive. They do not hear the pain and screams of the families of the victims. The BJP government has become irrational due to its arrogance of power. From the Chief Minister downwards, the administration is working with a spirit of revenge. This government has destroyed democracy and the Constitution in the state. A reign of dictatorship and terror has been established. The image of Uttar Pradesh is being tarnished in the entire state due to deaths in police custody and fake encounters.
Akhilesh Yadav said that Samajwadi Party considers taking lives of people by any means against hum.ty. The BJP government is committing murders by the police. In the Sultanpur case, Mangesh Yadav was murdered first by org.zing a fake encounter. When the government was accused and disgraced, another murder was carried out in a fake encounter. Injustice and atrocities are at their peak in the BJP government. The people will put an end to this tyrannical rule in the times to come.
