Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath on Monday cancelled the leaves of all police and administrative officials in the state till May 4 and asked all those on leave to report within 24 hours.
He also directed the officials from police station to ADG level to hold dialogues with religious leaders and eminent personalities within the next 24 hours to ensure peace during the upcoming festivals, and said mikes can be used at religious places but no new permission of their installation should be given.
"The leave of all administrative/police officers, from SHO, CO and district police chiefs to district magistrate, divisional commissioner is cancelled till May 4 with immediate effect. Those who are currently on leave, must return to the place of posting within the next 24 hours. This arrangement should be ensured by the Chief Minister's Office," Adityanath said.
"Additional police forces should be deployed in sensitive areas and drones used for keeping an eye on the situation. Every evening, the police force must do foot patrolling and police response vehicles (PRVs) should remain active," he said while holding a law and order review meeting with senior officials.
"There are many important religious festivals in the coming days. The month of Ramadan is going on. Eid festival and Akshaya Tritiya are likely to be on the same day. In such a situation, considering the current environment, the police will have to be extra sensitive," he said.
Stating that everyone has the freedom to follow his method of worship according to his religious ideology, the chief minister noted, "Although mikes can be used, make sure the sound does not come out of the premises. Other people should not have any problem." He added that no permission should be given to install the mikes at new sites.
"No religious procession should be taken out without due permission. Before giving permission, an affidavit should be taken from the organiser regarding maintaining peace and harmony.  Permission should be given to only those religious processions, which are traditional. New programmes should not be given unnecessary permission," he added.
Adityanath added that the safety of every single citizen in Uttar Pradesh is the primary responsibility of the government and the people.
"All of us have to be alert and careful about this responsibility of ours," he added.
All necessary efforts should be made keeping in view the local needs so that every festival is held in peace and harmony, he said and called for stern action against those issuing mischievous statements.  "Those trying to vitiate the atmosphere should be dealt strictly.  There should be no place for such people in a civilised society," he said.
Religious programmes and worship should be held at the designated place only and it should be ensured that no religious event takes place by disrupting traffic, he said. "If they (officials) have government accommodation, they should stay there or take one on rent, but they have to stay in their posting place in the night. It should be strictly followed," he said.
On report of harassment of a girl in Gudamba area of Lucknow, the negligence of police has come to light and firing was reported, he said, adding immediate action should be taken against the accused.  "The concerned SHO should be suspended. Action should be taken against the sub inspector and the beat constable," he added.

In a big boost in the semi-final to the 2024 elections, the Bharatiya Janata Party has swept Uttar Pradesh again.With PM Modi and CM Yogi's double engine pitch having resonated, the two have also set new records with the electoral win.
Yogi Adityanath is reportedly the first UP CM belonging to the BJP who has returned to power. Rajnath Singh, Ram Prakash Gupta, and Kalyan Singh - all failed to secure the throne for a second time.
Adityanath is also reportedly the first UP CM to complete his term and then return to power. In 70 years, Uttar Pradesh has reportedly had 21 CMs, but none who served for 5 years and then won again.
The mahant of Gorakhnath Math is also reportedly the first incumbent Chief Minister in 37 years to have returned to power. The last CM to do so was Congress' ND Tiwari in 1985.
 
When he takes oath now, Adityanath will be UP's first MLA CM in around 15 years, as per reports. While Yogi was a member of the Legislative Council in his first term as CM, his predecessors Mayawati and Akhilesh Yadav were also MLCs.
The BJP leader from Gorakhpur is reportedly the fifth CM to win a second consecutive term, after Sampurnanand, Chandrabhanu Gupta, Hemwati Nandan Bahuguna, and ND Tiwari.
Despite a 70-year history, UP has reportedly had only three CMs complete their tenure, with Adityanath the latest entrant to the exclusive club.
On a lighter note, the priest-turned-politician has also broken the 'Noida jinx'. A visit to Noida, near Delhi, was dreaded in political circles as the cause of UP Chief Ministers' loss in elections. Former CMs Mulayam Singh Yadav, Kalyan Singh, and Rajnath Singh had reportedly avoided visiting the NCR city when they were power, after Veer Bahadur Singh and ND Tiwari lost the CM's throne after a trip to Noida.

Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi Vadra headed to a Dalit-dominated area of Lucknow and swept the floor at the locality&rsquo;s Valmiki temple.
This comes after the Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath&rsquo;s barb over Priyanka sweeping the floor at a makeshift detention centre in Sitapur where she lodged earlier this week.
Adityanath said &lsquo;people want to make her fit for such work and they have made her fit to do so&rsquo;.
Issuing a statement, Priyanka pointed out that millions of women and Dalits do &lsquo;sweeping &amp; mopping&rsquo; every day. She claimed &lsquo;Yogi Adityanath&rsquo;s comments are anti-Dalit&rsquo; and stressed that &lsquo;no work is menial&rsquo;.
Her dart, aimed at Yogi Adityanath, was triggered by his swipe at her during his interview to a news channel.
Priyanka Gandhi also said she went to clean the floor to tell the chief minister that this was the work of self-respect and symbolised simplicity, adding that he should change his mindset.

A drone footage, shot by Reuters, showed hundreds of bodies, separated by bamboo sticks and covered with saffron cloth, buried along the banks in UP&rsquo;s Prayagraj.
After photos from the Sangam area of Prayagraj went viral on social media, the the Prayagraj municipal corporation deployed a team to removed bamboo sticks and shrouds from buried bodies and bury the corpses.
The civic body workers have covered bodies with sand again at cremation ghats. Arrangement of timber has now been made at cremation sites to prevent burial along the banks of Ganga, officials said.
CM Adityanath, meanwhile, asked officials for continued patrolling around all the rivers to ensure that the bodies were not disposed of in water.
