Good to see CM Yogi meeting our President. Both come from humble backgrounds and have worked hard to reach these positions - truly inspiring for every Indian! The police recruitment numbers are impressive too. More jobs = better security.

While the police recruitment is commendable, I hope quality isn't compromised for quantity. UP needs well-trained officers who can handle complex law & order situations. Also, more women police personnel please! 👮‍♀️

Janata Darshan is a great initiative but implementation matters. Does common man really get justice or is it just photo ops? My cousin waited 6 months for his land dispute to be resolved despite meeting CM during such program.

As someone from UP, I've seen visible improvement in law & order. Earlier we couldn't go out after dark, now markets remain open till late. More police presence has definitely helped. But corruption at lower levels still needs work.

Modernizing police is good but what about modernizing their mindset? New recruits should be trained in community policing, human rights and tech skills - not just lathi charge. UP Police image needs complete makeover!

While development work is visible in UP, I wish leaders would focus equally on education and healthcare. More schools and hospitals please! Police recruitment is important but so are teachers and doctors. 🇮🇳
