Live EventsUttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Sunday strongly criticised the miscreants involved in the violence in Bareilly, and warned them of police action.Addressing a public meeting in Balrampur, CM Yogi cited the lathi-charge in Bareilly and said that the miscreants would be dealt with in a similar manner.He said, “A few individuals should not be allowed to spoil the environment. These are the same people who brought an identity crisis to Uttar Pradesh along with the corrupt governments. There were no investments or developments in the State due to these people.””Now they are adopting new tactics. But they must remember that we are more prepared than they think. They will be beaten just as they were beaten in Bareilly,” the Chief Minister added. Condemning the “I love Muhammad” posters, CM Yogi said that the “fools” are ruining the lives of the children.”These fools don’t even know that symbols of faith are honoured, not loved. Faith isn’t something to be displayed at crossroads; it’s a matter of conscience. Some people are creating chaos in society by giving small children posters of ‘I Love Muhammad’. They don’t even realise that their own lives are already ruined, but they’re hell-bent on ruining the lives of these children as well,” he said. Add as a Reliable and Trusted News Source Add Now!
