Modernisation of police force began in Uttar Pradesh after BJP came to power in 2017: Amit Shah

Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Sunday (June 15, 2025) said that while modernisation of India's police forces began nationwide under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership, Uttar Pradesh's efforts in this regard commenced only in 2017 after the formation of a BJP government under Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath. Amit Shah launches camp for BJP leaders from M.P.; Rajnath Singh, B.L. Santhosh, Shivraj Chouhan to address sessions "The Centre's reforms were not visible in Uttar Pradesh from 2014 to 2017," Mr. Shah said after distributing job letters to the newly-recruited constables of Uttar Pradesh Police at a ceremony held in Lucknow. Mr. Shah also said India will be a global leader by 2047, with Uttar Pradesh playing a crucial role. The Home Minister was accompanied by Yogi Adityanath and Deputy Chief Ministers Brajesh Pathak and Keshav Prasad Maurya, among other senior officials. Amit Shah's speech in Madurai abominable, divisive and misleading: DMK leader A. Raja 'The event marked the biggest-ever direct recruitment drive for civil police constables in the history of the State police,' the Uttar Pradesh Government said in a statement. Under the 'Civil Police Direct Recruitment' drive, as many as 48,196 male and 12,048 female candidates have been selected by the Uttar Pradesh Police Recruitment and Promotion Board.

AAP leader Sonia Mann urges Congress to support government action against drug trafficking in Punjab

LUDHIANA: Responding to Congress leader Alka Lamba 's "statement" on the drug issue in Punjab , Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Sonia Mann countered by saying that the role of the opposition is not just to criticise the govt but also to "acknowledge" and appreciate its "good work". Sonia Mann said that for the "first time", a govt in Punjab is taking such "massive action" against drug traffickers. 'Anti-drug committees have been formed in every village, and large-scale awareness campaigns are being conducted. This deserves praise, but it is unfortunate that opposition leaders are resorting to petty politics even on an issue like drugs,' she claimed. Sonia Mann further added that during Congress's tenure, several ministers and MLAs were themselves accused of being involved in drug trafficking. 'Alka Lamba should say something about that as well, and she should question Punjab Congress President Raja Warring on why he is advocating for opening opium theke, which would only encourage drug use,' she remarked. She alleged that the Congress and Akali govts "promoted" drug use in Punjab by providing political patronage to traffickers. 'This resulted in the destruction of thousands of families, with countless parents losing their children and many children becoming orphans. In contrast, the AAP govt is taking strict action against drug traffickers, sending them to jail, and demolishing their illegal properties. This has created a significant fear among drug traffickers,' Mann claimed. She urged Congress leaders to support the govt's "efforts" to rid Punjab of drugs as quickly as possible, instead of "politicising" the issue.
