Lucknow, August 25: Attacking the Mayawati government in Uttar Pradesh over the law and order situation, Samajwadi Party today said women are not safe in the state which has a woman chief minister.
“Women are not safe in the state which has a woman chief minister,” Leader of the Opposition in Vidhan Sabha Shivpal Singh Yadav told reporters here.
Shivpal Singh Yadav and state unit president of SP Akhilesh Yadav lashed out at the ruling party alleging that people associated with the BSP were dictating terms to the law enforcement agencies and that FIRs were being lodged even on fake complaints to harass the innocents.
They told reporters “it is ironical that criminals are getting security and even the jail inmates are being forced to pay money as has happened recently in Sitapur jail where on denial of money an inmate had to pay with his life”.
