Launch crackdown on encroachment, take strict action against grabbers: CM Yogi

Gorakhpur, Mar 15 (UNI) Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Saturday directed the officials to take immediate action to reclaim illegally occupied land belonging to the poor and enforce strict measures against encroachers.

While attending the Janata Darshan programme at Gorakhnath Temple after celebrating Holi in Gorakhpur, the CM emphasising zero tolerance for land grabbing warned that those who unlawfully seize land or displace the vulnerable will face severe legal consequences.

Seated outside the Mahant Digvijay Nath Smriti Sabhagar, nearly 200 people shared their concerns with the CM, who assured them that no injustice would be allowed under his leadership.

He directed the officials to resolve issues promptly and effectively, reaffirming the government's commitment to addressing the concerns of every distressed citizen. "Our government is dedicated to ensuring justice for all and fostering prosperity for every individual," he said.

During the Janata Darshan programme, a man raised concerns about land grabbers illegally occupying his property. In response, Yogi promptly directed the police and administrative officials to take swift action and ensure the land was reclaimed. Emphasising a zero-tolerance policy on encroachment, he asserted that no one would be allowed to seize another person's land.

Many people approached him seeking financial assistance for medical treatment. He assured them that the government would provide full support for their treatment. Handing over their applications to the officials, he directed them to expedite necessary estimates and forward them for approval.

Addressing issues related to police and revenue departments, the CM stressed transparency and fairness, ensuring that no one faces injustice. He directed the officials to handle each case with sensitivity and provide the necessary help to every victim.

Several attendees brought their children to the event, where Yogi interacted warmly with them, asking their names and inquiring about their schooling. He gave them chocolates and encouraged them to study hard. Moved by his conversation with a Class 6 student, he became emotional and urged her parents to ensure she receives a quality education.
