Rule of law will prevail, says Yogi Adityanath

Lucknow/New Delhi: Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Adityanath Yogi paid a surprise visit to Hazratganj police station in Lucknow on Thursday to check general preparedness, and said that the rule of law would be established in the state. The CM took a round of the premises, catching policemen and officials by surprise. Seeking to send a strong message that laxity in enforcing law and order will not be tolerated, the UP police has suspended over 100 policemen, mostly constables, since the new government took charge.
Meanwhile, a news report said that meat exporters in UP were mulling legal options, saying the Centre supports legal slaughterhouses, but the UP government has banned even the mechanised ones. Lucknow’s famous ‘Tunday Kababi’ owner Abu Bakr expressed grief, saying his business was severely affected. “There is a shortage of mutton and buffalo meat,” he told a news outlet here.
