LUCKNOW: Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said on Monday that peace was restored in Kairana because of the state government's policy of zero-tolerance against crimes whereas the previous governments were involved in criminalisation of politics.
Laying the foundation of a PAC Battalion and launching a slew of development projects of Rs 426 crore in Shamli district on Monday, the CM said: "After 2017, peace has returned to Kairana due to the state government's policy of zero-tolerance against crimes. A number of families have returned to Kairana now. Today, I am here for the establishment of a battalion of Provincial Armed Constabulary (PAC) which will further help in improving the safety of the region," he said.
Adityanath said that people under his regime, those who had forced the people to migrate in 2016, have themselves migrated out of the state. The CM also met residents who returned after the migration in 2016. He laid the foundation stones of a PAC battalion camp at a cost of Rs 250 crore, a firing range and other development projects.
Mentioning the deployment of over 1278 personnel, the CM said that through this battalion, a better environment for security will be created in the state. “PAC ka jab danda chalega toh bade se bada dangayi parlok ki yatra karta dikhega (PAC's stick will set the rioters right) ,” he said "Between 2017, several Hindu families in Kairana had migrated due to threats of extortion from another community. However, in my regime, those who forced you to leave Kairana, have now left the place because they know that they will have to pay dearly for their misdeeds," he said.
Govt will leave no stone unturned to help ‘Kairana Gharana’ regain lost glory: CM
Lashing out at the previous SP and BSP governments for their failure in establishing a strict law and order system in the state, the CM remarked, “Muzaffarmagar ke dange aur Kairana ka palayan hamare liye rajniti ke mudde nahi balki desh aur pradesh ki shaan pe aanch aane waale mudde hain (Muzaffarnagar riots and Kairana exodus dented the reputation of the state).”
He went on to say that previously, jobs were given on the basis of face, money... But today I'm happy to see the youth of Shamli working in the education sector. Earlier, false cases were lodged against youth as well as our MLAs such as Hukum Singh, Suresh Rana or Tejendra Narwal.
Taking a jibe at SP, the CM added that earlier governments focused on family welfare, while thgis government under PM Modi's leadership got toilets constructed and waived loans.
Yogi also listed the various welfare schemes of the Centre and state. The CM also urged the people of Kairana to work collectively to help the region regain its lost glory.
“The government will leave no stone unturned to help ‘Kairana Gharana’ regain its lost glory. Everyone must join hands to help Shamli regain its identity,” he said.
