    we will be seeing many strange sikular comments.
    if it happenned in Gujarat, then its Modi's fault...because BJP is in power.
    But if it happens in Karnataka, it is not Siddu's fault? why? Because BJP is NOT in power.

    Guys, First decide when do you want blame Modi? when he is power or not in power?

    This not catching sharath's murderers is going to cost congress heavily in DK atleast.
    No wonder congress is loosing power at a rapid pace.

    Chief Minister Aditynath said state has Inherited legacy of Jungle raj In UP,p romised that the "rule of the law is our priority and we will establish it," adding that since the new government had started work, "some people are feeling sour about it."
    Two months is not a long time in politics to fall from grace, especially when a landslide of public support has propelled you to power.
    But in Uttar Pradesh, the honeymoon period of the Yogi Adityanath-led Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government seems to have been spiked by a series of incidents of heinous crimes and law and order issues. Serious crime figures have seen a sharp increase in many cases going up manifold.
    From murders to rapes to dacoities to caste conflicts and communal tensions, the government seems to be tottering in face of soaring crime and shaken public confidence.
    Data released by the state police paints a rather grim picture. Between March 15 and April 15 this year, rapes increased four times over the past year, murders doubled and dacoities grew manifold. In 2016, in this corresponding period, there were 41 rapes against 179 this year and dacoities rose from three to 20.
    Murders have gone up from 101 to a worrying 240 and robberies from 67 to 273. It's not only the statistics. The perception of the people on crumbling law and order should worry the ruling elite.
    As crimes soar in Uttar Pradesh, is Yogi Adityanath's honeymoon phase over?
    If Karnataka stand second Kannadigas once again need to thank BJP and associated fanatic organisations.During debut BJP ruling in Karnataka from Church attacks to communal became common. While in opposition also old habit don't die down.
    Party of difference has once again resorted to 'communal violence' from its 'good governance'.
    It is sure that BJP wanted to make Karnataka CM Yogi's UP of South India.

    It would be better statistics if communal/rivalry deaths reported before June 2014 compared to that after that date in India. By this we can determine the Achhe dins we are enjoying now.
