Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra urged Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath to fix the deteriorating law and order in the state
New Delhi: Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Tuesday urged Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath to fix the deteriorating law and order in the state, asserting that it is the responsibility of police and administration to take action in the wake of rising incidents of kidnapping.
In a letter to the chief minister, the Congress general secretary raised the matter of Vikram Tyagi, a businessman from Ghaziabad who has been missing for almost a month.
Tyagi's family suspects that he has been kidnapped, Priyanka Gandhi said.
Even after repeated requests, no concrete action has been taken by the police or administration, she alleged.
'Two days ago, a delegation of our party met the family. They are very worried and upset. They have written in a letter seeking help and strict directive to the police officers to fully assist them,' she said.
The Congress general secretary said in the letter that kidnapping incidents are increasing rapidly in Uttar Pradesh.
'Law and order is deteriorating. At this time, it is the responsibility of the police and administration to take action in such matters with promptness and efficiency,' Priyanka Gandhi asserted.
'Fix the law and order problem in the state. People are disturbed,' she said.
