CM Yogi targets ‘Saifai Syndicate’, says talent was ‘forced’ to migrate from UP, doles out appointment letters
Lucknow, November 11: Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath distributed appointment letters to 1,146 junior assistants selected by the UPSSSC for the Revenue Department on Wednesday. He also distributed assistance of ₹ 215 crore to 4,300 beneficiaries under the Farmers Accident Welfare Scheme.
Addressing the program held at the Indira Gandhi Pratishthan, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said that when talent did not receive work commensurate with its merits, it migrated. The youth of the state benefited the nation and the world with their hard work. Uttar Pradesh remained impoverished and faced discrimination. No appointments were made without recommendations or through bribery. The Appointment Commission was held hostage by a syndicate, the Saifai Syndicate.
Yogi said that before 2017, ‘Munna Bhai’ was in power in the government. The same thing happened in the appointment process. Someone would take the exam, and someone else would receive the appointment letter. Complaints would be filed with the government, but the government itself would orchestrate this sin. Then you would go to court. The court would stay the proceedings. The wrongdoer would take the money and deposit it in foreign banks. Their wealth would grow globally. The youth of Uttar Pradesh were cheated.
Chief Minister Yogi said that Uttar Pradesh simply did not have the necessary officers and employees to run it. In 2017, I was holding a meeting with the Home Department. I was told that 150,000 posts were vacant in the Uttar Pradesh Police alone. The then SP government had disbanded 34 companies of the PAC battalion, considered the scourge of rioters. During the four terms of the SP government, 1,500 riots occurred. You may have noticed the hustle and bustle of the markets on Dhanteras. You may have witnessed the Ayodhya Deepotsav and celebrated Diwali. Before 2017, any festival, be it Holi, Diwali, Janmashtami, or Guru Parv, would be preceded by riots. Curfews would be imposed. Who would shop if a curfew were imposed? You must have seen it. In the last nine and a half years, Uttar Pradesh has been saying, “No curfew, no riots, everything is fine in Uttar Pradesh now.”
Yogi said, “You must have seen the Deepotsav in Ayodhya. You celebrated Diwali, and many people are saying it caused pollution. Hey, we said pollution has happened, it will end. Why are you worrying? No one speaks out against those who polluted the entire system through their corrupt practices. And if people burst firecrackers and fireworks for a day, pollution occurs.
Chief Minister said that if it happens, it will end; that’s not the problem. People did well; they celebrated Diwali with great pomp and show. There was a lot of fireworks, and we said we wouldn’t impose any restrictions, but there was a lot of fireworks. I was also present at the fireworks in Ayodhya.” “When something wrong happens, it is not the person who is responsible, but when someone celebrates festivals and celebrations, then people start remembering pollution.”
Chief Minister Yogi said that he had promised to distribute appointment letters to another 100,000 youth within the next six months, i.e., by January 26. At the same time, a statement came from the leader of the Saifai syndicate, asking when the appointment letters would be distributed.
He replied, “If you can count, keep counting. Anyway, when we distribute appointment letters, it’s their bedtime. They’re from a wealthy family. Maybe during Diwali, all the Mahabharata-related connections meet, so gambling is inevitable. Gambling will inevitably get late at night. They’ll also have to stay up late, so they may not even realize that the appointment letters have been distributed. They may not remember!”
Yogi said that when he came to power in 2017, he inherited 3.4 million revenue cases from the legacy of the Samajwadi Party and the Bahujan Samaj Party. So far, the total number of cases resolved through the Revenue Department and various revenue courts is 3.781 million, 363. The previous government used to create controversy and not find solutions. We have found a solution to the problem. On average, 378,000 cases are being resolved each month.
He added that it is the result of this integrity that you are receiving your appointment letter today. It is the result of that integrity that we have broken the syndicate, fought against it, and taken strict action against every one of its henchmen. That is why the results of every examination in Uttar Pradesh are being announced transparently and timely. Deputy Chief Minister Brajesh Pathak and other dignitaries were present on this occasion.
