Mafia-turned-politician Atique Ahmed (L) and Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath.
Addressing a public rally today the DSA Maidan, Prayagraj, UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath called for support from voters and karyakartas in ensuring the victory of local BJP leader Ganesh Kaserwani to the Corporation Board.
Speaking at the venue which falls in Allahad (West), the constituency of former MLA, Atiq Ahmed, the CM said that nature has a way of settling scores, and neither does it commit atrocity, nor accept it.
“Some people had turned Prayagraj, where people suffering from injustice and atrocities come with a desire for justice, into a land of injustice and atrocities”, said Yogi Adityanath in an apparent reference to mafia-turned-politician, Atiq Ahmed.
“But this nature doesn’t commit an atrocity on anyone, nor does it accept an atrocity. It settles scores for everyone”, said the UP CM.
Referring to the recent crackdown of the UP Government on mafia lords, the Chief Minister relayed the UP government's stern action against mafia kings seeking.
Stressing on the emphasis of the BJP government, both at the Centre and in the state, on development for all, the Chief Minister stated that the State government’s fulcrum of operation is for the poor, without any heed for, or discrimination based on caste or religion.
He also described the commitment of the state government on replacing the weapons (‘tamanche’) in the hands of the youth of the state with tablets, referring to the state government scheme for providing tablets to around 1 crore young people in the state with the focus on skill development. The success of the recent UP Investors Business Summit in attracting business proposals worth thirty-five lakh crores was a precursor in providing employment to over one crore youths in the state, he said.
Commending the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the BJP government, and the progress of the nation under his leadership, including the G20 presidency, he emphasized on the goal of the BJP led government at the Centre and state to depict to the world the capability of uniting all Indians for the purpose of development of the country.
Before concluding with an exalted appeal to the crowd for a full majority corporation board under BJP Leader Ganesh Kaserwani in Prayagraj, he talked about the change the state of UP had seen, from a mafia-run and terror held situation and dynastic politics, to now becoming a place of booming development, and crores of beneficiaries of various development schemes of the state and Centre.
