BJP demands probe into 'irregularity' in UP police recruitment

A delegation of state BJP leaders today met Uttar Pradesh Governor Ram Naik and demanded a CBI or SIT probe into the alleged irregularities in police recruitment by the Samajwadi Party government.
Led by party leader Laxmi Kant Bajpai, the delegation met the Governor and submitted a memorandum in this regard.
The party demanded the matter should be probed either by the CBI or by an SIT under the supervision of the High Court.
Terming the government as "anti-youth, anti-farmers and anti-democracy," Bajpai alleged that youths of the state were feeling cheated.
He also sought the Governor's intervention into the government's decision to terminate mayors.

Also he termed as meagre the financial assistance to farmers hit by unprecedented rain and hailstorm.
Meanwhile, BJP Yuva Morcha workers were allegedly injured during a clash with police during a protest against irregularities in police recruitment, and also demanded a probe in the alleged irregularities.
