Uttar Pradesh: CM Yogi Adityanath holds 'Janta Darshan' at Gorakhnath temple

Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath listens to public grievances at Gorakhnath Temple while UP Police recruitment crosses 2.16 lakh in 8 years.

"Our government recruited 2.16 lakh police personnel in the Uttar Pradesh Police Force alone in the last 8 years. – Uttar Pradesh CMO"

Gorakhpur, June 18

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath held a Janta Darshan at the Gorakhnath temple in Gorakhpur on Wednesday.

The Chief Minister listened to the grievances and demands of those gathered to meet him.

After being elected as the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, Adityanath frequently conducts the 'Janata Darshan' programme. He started the Janta Darshan soon after becoming the chief minister in 2017, aiming to resolve the public's complaints and grievances swiftly.

Meanwhile, the Chief Minister's Office (CMO) stated on Tuesday that the Uttar Pradesh government has recruited 2.16 lakh police personnel over the last eight years.

In a post on X, the Uttar Pradesh CMO said, "Our government recruited 2.16 lakh police personnel in the Uttar Pradesh Police Force alone in the last 8 years. We carried out this recruitment and worked towards transforming the UP Police into a 'modern police' force..."

The post also stated that, in addition to the large-scale recruitment, efforts have been made to make the UP Police a 'modern police'.

On Sunday, Union Home Minister Amit Shah distributed appointment letters to 60,244 Civil Police Constables of Uttar Pradesh Police in Lucknow.

In his address, Shah said that today, more than 60,000 youth will become an integral part of the most significant police force in India. He said that the Uttar Pradesh Police is the most significant police force in the entire country, but for some years in the past, the law and order situation was deteriorating.

He said that in 2017, Yogi Adityanath became the state's Chief Minister, and the Uttar Pradesh Police once again began to move forward on the path of achieving new heights.

The Uttar Pradesh Police Constable Recruitment Exam 2024 was held on August 23, 24, 25, 30, and 31 across 67 districts. The exam, conducted in two shifts each day, was held at 1,174 centres and aimed to fill over 60,000 vacancies.

Janta Darshan is a great initiative by CM Yogi ji. Direct interaction with common people shows his commitment to governance. More leaders should adopt this approach. The massive police recruitment will definitely improve law & order in UP. 👍

While the police recruitment numbers are impressive, I hope proper training is being given to all these new constables. Modern policing requires more than just numbers - it needs sensitivity training and community engagement skills too.

As someone from Gorakhpur, I've seen the transformation in law & order first-hand. The streets feel safer now. But I wish the Janta Darshan could be held more frequently - the queues are always so long!

Good to see focus on modern policing. But what about women's safety? Hope some of these new recruits are being specially trained to handle crimes against women. UP needs more women police officers too!

The numbers look good on paper, but how many of these new recruits will actually be posted in rural areas where policing is most needed? Most seem to prefer urban postings. Need better incentives for rural service.

My nephew got selected in this recruitment drive! Our whole family is so proud. This government is creating real opportunities for youth. Hope he gets good training to serve the people of UP properly 🙏
