Maya hits the road in western UP districts
Express News Service Posted online: Sun Feb 20 2011, 03:25 hrs
Lucknow : Continuing the district inspection tour to know the ground
realities about her governance, Chief Minister Mayawati on Saturday
visited Muzaffarnagar, Bijnore and Saharanpur districts in Western UP
parts.

During her visit to Muzaffaranagar, the CM reviewed the law and order
situation and expressed her unhappiness over the failure of the police
to curb crime falling under the areas of Kairana police circle of the
district. She asked the Circle Officer and Station House Officers
concerned to either perform or face action. She has directed the
SSP/DIG of Muzaffarnagar to put an effective check on the crime graph.

Reports reaching here from Muzaffarnagar said a group of SP workers
was planning to lodge their protest during the CM's visit there.
"However, the police took them under custody. They were released only
after Mayawati's departure from the district," a source in
Muzaffarnagar said.

The chief minister also personally saw the crime register kept in the
Civil Line police station and reviewed the progress in the
investigation of different cases. Later, she reached Gangeru, which is
under the category of Ambedkar village, and personally saw the
development projects undertaken in the village. She collected feedback
about the distribution of mid-day meal from the students after
visiting schools in the village.

In Bijnore, she was happy with the works undertaken by DM A V
Rajamouli and SSP Mahesh Kumar Mishra. She also directed the officers
concerned to keep the records properly in the Sadar Tehsil of Bijnore
district. She also saw the register containing details of the public
grievances received during Tehsil Diwas and asked the officers to
enter more details such as dates of the disposal of the public
grievances. She reached the Kotwali police station in Bijnore and
collected information about the cases that is received on the "Thana
Diwas".

In Saharnapur, she reached Mirzapur (Ambedkar village) and reviewed
the revenue records of the village. She supervised the village roads
and houses built under Indira Awas Yojana.

Two days on, no FIR against BSP MLA who slapped cop

Even two days after the attack on a police constable by BSP MLA Haji
Yakub Qureshi and his aides during his duty hours, the Meerut police
have yet to lodge an FIR in the matter.

The constable, Chahan Singh Balyan, who got admitted in a private
hospital following an angina pain on Friday evening, is stated to be
stable. When inquired about the delay in registering a case, Special
DG (Law & Order) Brij Lal said, "I am not aware about the matter."

The DGP, Karamvir Singh, was contacted several times for his comment
over the issue, but he kept replying that he was busy in a meeting.

However, Meerut DIG Jai Narain Singh said, "We are busy in arrangement
for the Chief Minister's visit in the district scheduled for tomorrow.
The SP (City) was handed over the inquiry in the matter yesterday
which is yet to be completed. A decision over lodging of an FIR would
be taken after the report is submitted tomorrow after CM's visit."

Meanwhile, constable's son Deepak told The Indian Express this evening
that the SP (City) or any other police official has not visited his
father so far to record his statement while the inquiry by the DIG was
ordered on Friday. He also said, "My father has decided to tender his
resignation from the police services if any action was not initiated
against the MLA and his men who manhandled him and tore off his
uniform."

Deepak added, "The Reserve Inspector (RI) of the Meerut Police Lines,
RL Niranjan visited my father late this evening. Niranjan stayed with
him for over two hours and kept convincing him to withdraw his
complaint against the MLA and settle a compromise with him. But, my
father maintained his decision to either get a case registered into
the matter or he would send his resignation to the Chief Minister and
the DGP."

When contacted, the RI refused to comment over the issue. The Meerut
Range IG, Rajni Kant Misra also said that the SP (City) has been asked
to find out facts into the matter and an appropriate action can be
initiated only on the basis of the actual findings. When inquired
about the constable's decision for tendering his resignation, the IG
said, "The constable has not made any such decision so far."

Chahan Singh Balyan was manhandled by MLA Qureshi and his men when the
constable had asked them to divert their vehicles for Ravidas Jayanti
procession on Thursday evening.
