Lucknow: Police are on high alert in view of the continuing violence in Uttar Pradesh. There was violence in Kanpur and then in other districts, including Prayagraj, after friday prayers, to protest against nupur sharma's alleged objectionable statement. The miscreants resorted to vandalism, arson and stone pelting after the prayers. Given all this, this time the police are on high alert to try to stop before the violence takes place. More force has been deployed in sensitive areas. Many areas are being monitored with the help of drones.
At the same time, protests against the government's Agneepath scheme in Uttar Pradesh started from Friday morning. The miscreants torched a stationary train in Ballia in protest against the agneepath. Many of the coaches of the train had to be cut apart. Along with this, vandalism has also been carried out at the station in Ballia. Some miscreants staged a chakka jam on agra-lucknow expressway and vandalised a roadways bus. The protest was held by stopping the train in Chandauli and a dharna in Amethi. Police are on high alert in the state and are engaged in controlling miscreants.
In Aligarh, the ongoing protests over Agneepath continue to grow. The resentment among the youth over Agneepath is not taking the name of stopping. After the fire broke out at the police outpost in Tappal, the protesters also torched the car of daroga parked outside the Jattari police outpost. On the other hand, apart from the CO, some policemen were also injured during the incident in Tappal. In such a situation, the question arises whether those who burn the country will be able to serve the country by staying in the army? Because a soldier sacrifices his life to save the country and these miscreants are burning the property of the country and attacking the police also.
