Uttar Pradesh has returned to pre historic era
Looks like Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his close confidante and CM of UP Adityanath have been partially successful in taking the country back to the bygone glory. The incident of a police officer being lynched to death by unruly mob has proved this beyond any doubt to the whole world. So far, the mobs would only target the commoners and the police department would watch such incidents rather callously. Now these barbarians from stone age have started with the top officers in police department. Now if the police officers are not safe from them, how would they provide any security to commoners?
The question of where should the commoners take their complaints, had begun to set in like rigor mortis on a sudden death. The police department would silently have some sort of a nexus with the alleged protectors of culture when they killed people in Gujarat, Rajasthan or Uttar Pradesh. Cases would be hardly registered because these 'protectors of culture’ enjoyed the confidence and protection of politicians.
Even if a case was indeed registered, the department would ensure the case was weak so that it does not get too far. With the murder of Subodh Singh, the goondas of Sangh Parivar have sent a very strong message to the police department. If any officer takes any interest in investigating the charges of mob lynching or any other crime committed by the Sangh Parivar, leading to any legal action, even the police officers will not be spared.
The fact that murder was led and supported by VHP, Bajarang Dal and even BJP to some extent has now come to light. Killing a police officer means challenging the constitution and threatening a state government in very definite terms. Unfortunately, neither the CM of UP nor the PM of the nation. Have opened their mouth about this gruesome murder. Instead, a BJP MLA has tried to cover up the act by issuing statement to protect the perpetrators station the dead officer was killed by police shooting. Now people are forced to wonder if this was a state sponsored murder. The murder of Subodh Singh and assault on police officers is bringing back the violence that happened around the time when Akhlaq or Meerut was murdered.
A mob lynched Akhlaq to death on mere baseless suspicion of him storing beef in his fridge at home. Subodh Singh was the investigating officer of Akhlaq murder case. He was facing a lot of political pressure in this regard and he was issued veiled and direct threats too. He had tried hard to arrest the accused in the Akhlaq lynching case and had warned those who were trying to give different colours politics involving cow. He faced many threats when he had to arrest the Sangh Parivar activists. Now, the very people who killed Akhlaq have killed the officer who was investigating the case too.
Before killing Subodh Singh, rumours were left afloat about 25 days prior that cow carcasses were found somewhere. Then they took to streets demanding action against illegal abattoirs that they claimed were open in the state. But where was the cow carcass found? would there be a carcass if anyone had indeed killed the cow for beef or meat? Abattoirs use bones and skin for other industries. That being the case, even if a carcass was indeed found, it must be that of a cow which could have starved to death in some Gau Shala and not killed for gains. Or this rumour could have been sent afloat to create an ecosystem to kill the officer. Why did people lay siege to police station over this rumour?
Why was Subodh Singh killed by the mobs? Was he running an illegal abbattoir that he had hurt someone's sentiments? The Sangh Parivar goondas have exhibited more cruelty than those butchers who kill cows and sell its parts for gains or business. Those who can kill a police officer, can also strew streets with cow carcasses in public places to achieve their objective. This incident in Uttar Pradesh has very evidently indicated the setting in of 'jungle raj’. When a state is ruled by a criminal with many cases against him, this is most important expected to happen.
Uttar Pradesh government must be dismissed and governor rule must be imposed on the state. Unfortunately, the President who has to take this decision has turned into a puppet at the hands of Sangh activists. PM Modi has to open his mouth atleast for the sake that this officer who was killed was a Hindu. The president must break his silence to rescue Uttar Pradesh from the hands of a criminal in Yogi's attire. President has to choose between the nation or Sangh Parivar.

"The IndiGo fiasco is the direct result of the govt's monopoly model. And as always, it is ordinary Indians who are paying the price," he said.
Shivakumar said that the Kempegowda International Airport in Bengaluru, which is India's 3rd busiest airport with nearly 40 million travellers a year, is in complete chaos.
"This is hurting families, businesses and our national reputation. I urge the Union Government to act immediately and bring this situation under control. Our people deserve better," he added.
Domestic carrier IndiGo cancelled over 800 flights on Saturday, the fifth day of the ongoing crisis, even as the government imposed a cap on airfares and directed the airline to process all refunds by Sunday evening.
