Lucknow, 25 August, 2020: The Uttar Pradesh Congress has slammed the move to take Congress state unit president Mr Ajay Kumar Lallu and others into the police custody near Salon in Rae Bareli while they were going to meet the relatives of Balia journalist Ratan Singh, stating that law and order situation in Yogi Raj has completely failed. The state has become a hub of crime and criminals are so emboldened that now even the murder of journalists has become a common thing.
In a statement, Uttar Pradesh Congress president Mr Ajay Kumar Lallu said the murder of Balia journalist Ratan Singh has exposed Yogi Raj. The law and order of the state has become out of control for Yogi, who claims to establish Ram Rajya in the state. Anarchy has become an empire. Uttar Pradesh has become the safest land for criminals.
Uttar Pradesh Congress president Mr Ajay Kumar Lallu further said that Jungle Raj has been established in the state. The rule of law has been paralyzed. Today Uttar Pradesh is passing through a very frightening situation. There is no guarantee to the safety of the life of common people.
Mr Ajay Kumar Lallu has said that women, journalists and common people of the state have suffered from the increase in crime but the Yogi government has miserably failed to make the common man feel safe. He said that the graph of crime in Uttar Pradesh has beaten the corona.

Mr Ajay Kumar Lallu further said that what kind of state is being made by Yogi Ji where 124 murders take place in a month and three journalists are killed in three months. Not only this, the government has filed FIRs against 11 journalists to hide its own failure. The Congress is not going to remain silent against the Jungle Raj. Yogi Adityanath will have to answer to the state and its people.
The delegation, which was taken in police custody, included State General Secretary Manoj Yadav, Kisan Congress president Tarun Patel, Lucknow District president Ved Prakash Tripathi, city unit president Mukesh Singh Chauhan and others.
