Mangesh Yadav's encounter raises questions...?
Uttar Pradesh is always in the headlines for some issue or the other. After Mangesh's encounter in Sultanpur, UP, questions are being raised on this action of UP STF. The family members say that the police picked him up from home and then shot him, while the STF says that he was killed in an encounter. After this incident, Samajwadi party supremo akhilesh yadav and congress MP rahul gandhi have attacked and raised questions. Understanding the situation, chief minister yogi adityanath has ordered a magisterial inquiry.
All the encounters that took place in UP in recent times have come to the public through media reports. From march 2017 to april 2023, 183 encounters were conducted by the UP Police. If we look at this number till august 2024, then this figure becomes 207. It is true that as soon as yogi adityanath became the cm, the incidents of encounters increased rapidly, while the state government was also accused of many fake encounters. Recently, an incident came to light in Lucknow, in which water was thrown on a woman riding a bike.
Encounter and politics in UP
After this incident, cm yogi adityanath named only two accused in the house, who were from Muslim and Yadav caste. While many accused were involved in that case. At that time, cm Yogi had said in the house that he would put such accused on a bullet train. This statement has many meanings.
On the other hand, if we talk about the encounter of Mangesh Yadav, questions are also being raised on the CO of UP STF, Dharmesh Shahi. According to Dharmesh Shahi, he did the encounter wearing a bullet proof jacket and with full pomp and show. But in the pictures that have come out, he is seen without a bullet proof jacket. Also, he is seen wearing slippers. That is, he is not even wearing shoes, due to which questions are being raised as to how he could have done the encounter while running.
