No place for the corrupt in police department: Yogi

Seeking identification of police personnel having turk with criminals, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Sunday warned that there is no place for the corrupt in the police department.

"Policemen who are in collusion with criminals must be identified. There is no place for corrupt police personnel in the department," said the chief minister.

The chief minister's warning came during a review meeting of the functioning of the police in the Azamgarh division.

Lamenting the lack of preemptive police, the chief minister also asked, "Why do the police swing into action only on media reports?"
Conscious that his directions for crime control should not result into the police evading registration of FIRs, the chief minister cautioned, "Instead of crime control figures, the police should make the faith of people in them as the parameter for effective law and order situation."
