Lucknow, Dec 27 (PTI) Samajwadi Party President Akhilesh Yadav has latched on to Uttar Pradesh Governor Anandiben Patel's remarks on law and order situation in the state to take a subtle jibe at the government.

Interacting with reporters at the Raj Bhavan on Thursday, Patel said the law and order situation has improved in the state, but there is still time before it could be termed "100 per cent safe for women".

"The fact is that before the BJP came to power in Uttar Pradesh, it was difficult for women to venture out after 5 pm. The situation was in stark contrast to Gujarat where women move freely even at midnight.

"Now the situation in Uttar Pradesh is much improved on the law and order front too. But if you ask me if the state is 100 per cent safe, I would say there is still some work to do," Patel said.

The governor added that she continues to share the concerns faced by people with Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath so that they are resolved promptly.
