Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra on Monday slammed the Yogi Adityanath government over the law and order situation in Uttar Pradesh, alleging that fear prevails among the people of the state.
Along with her tweet attacking the state government, Priyanka Gandhi tagged a media report which claimed that an iron trader was kidnapped this morning in Baghpat and Rs one crore was demanded in ransom.
"An iron broker was abducted in Baghpat today.
Ladies are undependable in UP. Dealers are undependable. Kids are undependable," Priyanka Gandhi said in a tweet in Hindi.
"Those in government give empty talks in political race gatherings. Dread wins out in the open," the Congress general secretary responsible for UP said.
The Congress has been attacking the UP government over the state of law and order, alleging that criminal activities are rampant, a claim denied by the state dispensation.
