Meerut/Lucknow, August 26
Terming his ongoing campaign against the illegal drug trade as a ‘campaign to save the youth and
the country', the Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister on Friday urged society to extend support for the
drive against drugs. “Anyone trying to play with the lives of youth will not be spared,” he said.
While distributing tablets under Mukhyamantri Abhyudaya Yojana and Swami Vivekananda Yuva
Sashaktikaran Yojana in Meerut, Yogi said "In the ongoing campaign against drug dealers in the
state, every section of the society will have to participate as this is a campaign to save the country
and its youth, from the conspiracy of ruining their life through liquor or any kind of drugs or
intoxicant.”
“If someone plays with the life of the younger generation, we will treat him as a national criminal
and punish him for it. Their property will also be confiscated”, CM remarked.
In an event organised at the Chaudhary Charan Singh University, the CM also distributed ‘gharauni’
certificates (land ownership documents) under the Svamitva scheme of the state government .
Speaking on the occasion, the CM said that Meerut is the base land of the history of India having a
mythological and historical identity.
“Efforts are underway to ensure that every section of the society should get the benefits of the
schemes of the government without discrimination. With the digital revolution, people are getting
the benefit of welfare schemes through DBT.”
The CM said that India presented a world-class model of Covid management under the leadership of
the Prime Minister.
“On the call from the Prime Minister, the whole country showed unity on the day of Janata Curfew.
Free test, free treatment was provided during the pandemic in India. In an effort to save lives and
livelihood, over 80 crore people were given free ration in the country.”
Launching a scathing attack on the previous governments, the CM said, “Earlier, the houses of the
poor were occupied by goons and mafias and the government acted indifferent towards such acts.
Now we are using drone technology to mark the properties of people and they are being given their
ownership rights. So far, it has been given to 34 lakh families.”
Asserting that being the most populated state, Uttar Pradesh has a maximum number of youth. The
youth of the state is also getting smart and they have limitless possibilities.
“During the Covid period, the Rajasthan government did not give any support to the youth of UP
who were there for studies. It was our government who brought them back safely.”
Mentioning how the government gave employment to the migrant labourers during Covid, the CM
said that skill training was given to these workers and they were linked to employment and self-
employment opportunities.
“Today we are giving smartphones and tablets to the youths studying in the Abhyudaya Coachings to
enable them in technology. In these coaching institutes, which will soon be extended to all 75
districts of the state, free classes are being given by the administrative officers”, Yogi said, adding
that MoUs have also been signed with companies like Infosys, whose programme based courses will
be able to benefit the youth of the state.
Taking a swipe at the previous government , the CM said, “We often create negativity by questioning
the functioning of others. No one is incapable, all they need is a qualified mentor.”
This is the same India, where there was distrust before 2014, there were agitations, in Uttar
Pradesh, riots used to happen every day.In today’s Uttar Pradesh, no one is allowed to play with the
law and order, he added.
He said that nothing can stop Uttar Pradesh from becoming number one. To make the state a dollar
one trillion economy, efforts are being made.
“Now the state's first sports university is being established here. Sports will be linked with education
policy. With the setting up of sports academies in every village, drug dealers will not be able to ruin
the younger generation,” he concluded.
CM Yogi holds review meeting with officers in Meerut
Prior to the event, the CM chaired a meeting to review the progress of development works, welfare
schemes, along with the law and order maintenance in the Meerut division.
He said maintaining law and order is the top priority of his government and he would not tolerate
any kind of laxity in control of crimes in the state, adding, “Criminals must be treated in the way they
deserve to be.”
Yogi Adityanath also ordered the police department to curb crimes against women at any cost. “Such
criminals should be identified and strict action should be taken against them.”
Tough action should be taken against both criminals as well as those who protect them. Attempts to
disturb the peace of the state will not be accepted in any situation. Such accused should be
identified and arrested. Cases under Gangster Act should be registered against them, Yogi said.
He asserted that providing a safe environment to all the citizens of the state including women is the
main agenda of the government.
Several officers attended the meeting through video conferencing. During the meeting, information
regarding sugarcane payments made in six districts of the division, regarding the Har Ghar Tiranga
campaign were shared with him. In addition, presentations related to 15 schemes were made.
“It should be your priority that the benefits of government schemes reach every section and every
citizen. The government should strive towards making the state a ‘Uttam Pradesh’. We have been
successful to a great extent and will continue making efforts for this in future too,” the CM said.
He exhorted the officers to work at the grassroots level so that the common man can take advantage
of the welfare schemes. The officers should review the progress report of the schemes every month
so that the schemes are completed in time.
