Uttar Pradesh: Akhilesh Yadav, the leader of the Samajwadi Party, blasted the Uttar Pradesh government, headed by Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, on Wednesday for taking “police action” against protesting UPPSC candidates and said that it was “playing with their future.”

The leader of the Samajwadi Party also praised and deemed the candidates’ requests to be reasonable.

The young people who come to Prayagraj to seek employment are being lathi charged. They are demonstrating in support of their education. The idea that the government is tampering with their future doesn’t even concern them. He said that the candidates’ requests were legitimate.

For the third day in a row, students preparing for the Uttar Pradesh Public Service Commission (UPPSC) staged a candlelight march outside the UPPSC office in Prayagraj on Wednesday.

The applicants are requesting that the UPPSC tests be administered in a single shift, notably for the Provincial Civil Services (PCS) and Review Officer/Assistant Review Officer (RO/ARO) exams.

Following the Supreme Court’s ruling in the bulldozer case, Akhilesh Yadav said that the usage of bulldozers must cease.

The Supreme Court’s ruling that action must be taken against the authorities and individuals implicated is a subject of great satisfaction. Due to their violations of the Constitution, the government has also been fined. “The bulldozer must stop after this decision,” he said.

Chief Minister Adityanath was famously dubbed the “bulldog baby” due to the UP government’s frequent use of bulldog action against those suspected of heinous crimes.

On Wednesday, the Supreme Court ruled that no demolition may take place without first giving the property owner a 15-day notice of reason and without according to the legal requirements. The highest court also ruled that the government cannot act as a judge, find an accused individual guilty, and then destroy his property as a form of punishment.

“A person suspected of a crime cannot be found guilty by the executive and punished by having his home or business property demolished. In a ruling, a panel of justices, BR Gavai and KV Vishwanathan, said that such an executive action would be beyond its bounds.
