BSP alleges 'jungle raj & gunda raj' in UP as Hathras molestation victim's father killed

Hitting out at Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, Bahujan Samaj Party National Spokesperson Sudhindra Bhadoria on Tuesday alleged that Uttar Pradesh has become a hub of "jungle raj and gundaraj". Bhadoria said that Hathras district has become the centre for criminal activities against Dalits, the poor and women. He criticized the Uttar Pradesh government for not taking quick action.  

'UP has become hub of jungle raj and gundaraj'

Bhadoria said, "There has been a lot of news regarding sexual abuse, murder, rape and molestation coming from Uttar Pradesh. I would like to say that Hathras district has become the centre of such activities. You have seen that a few months ago there was a murder, then another murder, now the complaint of this teenager and the murder of her father, it shows that Uttar Pradesh has become a hub of jungle raj and gundaraj. There is no protection for women, Dalits and poor." Bhadoria slammed the Uttar Pradesh government for the late response and called on Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath to take immediate action in the latest case.
