The Congress on Thursday (October 1, 2026) attacked the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government in Uttar Pradesh over the State’s law and order situation, alleging that Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath had created a “one district, one mafia” model, with criminals enjoying political protection.
The party said that Dalits and the vulnerable sections of society bore the brunt of what it called a nexus between criminals and those in power.
All India Congress Committee in-charge of Uttar Pradesh, Rajendra Pal Gautam, said the State witnesses nine murders, 10 attempts to murder, nine rapes, 33 kidnappings and around 235 violent crimes every day.
Mr. Gautam referred to recent observations by the Supreme Court and the Allahabad High Court on the functioning of the Uttar Pradesh police and said they reflected the “anarchy prevailing under BJP rule” in the State.
