Earlier today, CM Yogi said that before 2017, recruitment in Uttar Pradesh was plagued by corruption, nepotism, and discrimination, which derailed youth aspirations and weakened law and order.
Addressing the appointment letter distribution ceremony for 1,494 newly selected assistant operators in the UP Police Telecom Department, the CM recalled how past practices led to riots, terrorist attacks, and a climate of fear, citing incidents in Ayodhya, Kashi, Lucknow, and Rampur. He personally handed over letters to several recruits during the event at Indira Gandhi Pratishthan.
“After the double-engine government came to power in 2017, the first major step was to make the recruitment process transparent and fair. The Police Recruitment Board was strengthened as part of this effort. As a result, Uttar Pradesh now ranks first in the country for police recruitment and providing government jobs. So far, the government has given government jobs to 8.5 lakh youth, which is the highest number in the entire country,” he added.
The CM mentioned that the historic changes in the police recruitment process after 2017 are not just about numbers but represent a new identity, safety, and trust in Uttar Pradesh. Since 2017, more than 217,500 personnel have been recruited in the UP Police through a fair and transparent process, which is the highest in the country.
He said that when the BJP government was formed in 2017 under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the first priority was to strengthen the recruitment board and ensure accountability for anyone tampering with the future of the youth. Today, UP’s recruitment process has become a model for the entire country.
The CM added that transparency in recruitment also boosted investments, creating local employment opportunities for nearly 2 crore youth in their own districts. With support from outsourcing, technology, and policy-making, Uttar Pradesh has now emerged as one of India’s fastest-growing economies. (ANI)
