More encounters during Yogi's tenure - let's know...?
After the Mangesh Yadav encounter, the opposition has alleged that STF's CO Dharmesh Shahi has links with BJP. Shahi's wife is Ritu Shahi, who is a member of the Mahila Morcha in Gorakhpur BJP. Along with this, she has also been recently made a member of the Women's Commission. Therefore, allegations are now being made against Shahi. The timing of the incident also needs to be paid attention to, on september 2, the IG of ayodhya Range announced a reward of 50 thousand on Mangesh Yadav, according to the family, the police picked him up from his house the same night.
On september 4, the reward amount is increased to one lakh rupees by Lucknow's ADG, after which he is encountered on september 5. The sudden increase in the amount within 2 days and then the encounter raises questions, which the UP police will have to answer. The police will also have to answer whose bike it was, in whose name it was registered.
The family is even claiming that Mangesh was in gujarat for seven months and had recently returned home from there. After that such an incident happens. To avoid questions and to see the situation, cm Yogi has ordered a magisterial inquiry. The opposition is also raising the question that the SDM who has been given this inquiry is also from the same caste as the CM.
More encounters during Yogi's tenure
Most encounters have happened during Yogi's tenure. If we look at the top, then the people who have been killed are from the Muslim community. According to media data, a total of 183 encounters have taken place from march 2017 to april 2023, out of which 61 are Muslims. Now, apart from Muslims, people of other castes have also started coming under its purview. This is the situation when by-elections are to be held on ten seats in the state. PM Modi's reputation was at stake in the lok sabha elections, but here cm Yogi's reputation is at stake.
Now questions are being raised on things called security in UP. If someone talks on the phone on the road, then their phone is snatched and run away. Now thieves steal bikes from the film CT itself, so the police is lagging behind where it should work, and the work it does comes under question. Even if cm Yogi says that criminals have started getting scared now.
