A newly-made road in India’s Uttar Pradesh state was dug up and destroyed allegedly by a local MLA’s aide after the contractor refused to pay “goonda tax”. The incident took place in Uttar Pradesh’s Shahjahanpur district, where a group of people, claiming to be local MLA’s associates destroyed a 7-km road using JCB, assaulted workers and set machines on fire. With the incident coming to light, the Uttar Pradesh government issued a statement that said: “In the road dug-up incident of Shahjahanpur, the Uttar Pradesh chief minister has issued stern instruction. After the FIR has been filed, now damages will be realised from the accused.” Now, the police have arrested five accused in the incident and the JCB used in the incident has also been seized. Uttar Pradesh Has No Place for Even Those Who Sympathised With Mafias, Says CM Yogi Adityanath.
