The UP government has no provision to compensate families of people who die in “riot-related incidents”.

This information was submitted by UP CM in the state assembly on Tuesday.


According to Yogi’s submission, 21 people died in “riot-related incidents” in the last six months.

He said 400 police personnel were injured in stone-pelting by

protesters while 61 cops suffered gunshot injuries.

At least 21 people were killed in violence during anti-CAA protests across UP on December 19 and 20

The UP government has claimed that none of them died of police bullets.

While referring to these incidents of violence in his speech in the assembly last week...

...the CM had claimed that “rioters were killed by rioters”.


Yogi also sparked controversy with his remark that, "the ones who died, had come to die"

Yogi’s statement has come at a time when the BJP fails to handle the reaction over CAA.

Delhi continues to burn after riots broke out due to the hate rants by BJP leader Kapil Mishra.

Congress has demanded arrest of Kapil Mishra for provoking communal violence.

More than 18 people have died in violence in last 4 days in Delhi.


Congress has demanded a roll back for CAA as government fails to convince citizens about the act.

Punjab CM Captain Amrinder Singh has said,"after so many deaths and unrest...

...government must realize it's mistake and roll back the CAA"

Yogi had earlier ordered issuance of recovery notices to the protesters...

.... who damaged public property during violence

The new citizenship law has become a black law resulting in more than 50 deaths so far.

Thousands of people have been injured in police action in these protests in last two months.
