Meerut, April 08: Alleging that the crime rate in Uttar Pradesh has gone up under the BSP rule, BJP has demanded imposition of President’s rule in the state.
“The number of criminals has gone up during the regime of the BSP government in the state and the crime rate is on the rise,” state BJP President Surya Pratap Shahi said here yesterday.
The increasing crime rate in the state will result in the defeat of Mayawati government in the next Assembly elections scheduled in 2012, he said.
Pointing out that the land-grabbing case in Noida was much bigger than the 2G spectrum scam, Shahi said, “The BJP will get it probed by the CBI once it comes to power in the state and chief minister Mayawati would be put behind bars.
