'Corrupt will meet same fate as rioters, their properties will be seized too': Yogi Adityanath

"The people have accepted the UP model. There is no place for crime and criminals in the state. Uttar Pradesh is now a riot-free state,": Yogi Adityanath

'Corrupt will meet same fate as rioters, their properties will be seized too': Yogi Adityanath

Jaunpur (UP): Addressing a large gathering at an inauguration and foundation stone laying ceremony in Uttar Pradesh's Jaunpur on Friday, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said corruption was in the genes of the parties that ruled the state before 2017 and warned the corrupt would meet the same fate as those involved in riots. Taking a dig at the previous governments, CM Yogi said, "The 'daam' (price) of every 'kaam' (work) was already fixed. The racket operating during the previous governments had made the entire system hollow, by acting like a weevil. The results of this were known to everyone, and people of UP had to pay the price for it."

 

CM Yogi Adityanath inaugurated and laid the foundation stone of 116 public-welfare projects costing Rs 258  crores in Uttar Pradesh's Jaunpur.

"Corruption was in the genes of governments before 2017. Earlier, the government schemes were made to benefit one's contractor and aides," Aditynanath said.

"The people have accepted the UP model. There is no place for crime and criminals in the state. Uttar Pradesh is now a riot-free state," Adityanath added. He also said the law and order in the state is becoming an "example"  in the country, and better law and order is taking forward the possibilities of investment and employment.

 

"UP is the first state which has taught a lesson to the rioters that if they indulge in rioting, they will be deprived of the property made by their earlier generations. And, we are going to take this fight to corrupt people. We want that the property made by the corrupt should be used for the public, and there is a need to take forward a big campaign in this regard," he said.

"Today, when a resident of UP goes outside (the state), he is seen with respect. However, the situation was not so five years ago, as the youths who had to go out, had to face problems of identity and credibility. The people from the state were forced to hide their identity at that time," Adityanath said. He asserted that the Uttar Pradesh government has worked with the policy of having zero tolerance towards crime and criminals, and has "infused a new confidence in the country".
