Uttar Pradesh Police has termed Yogi Adityanath as ‘symbol of faith’ while slamming the act of doctoring the newly elected chief minister’s photo with a female actor.
In a press note, the cops wrote with extreme ‘anguish’ that how an individual had doctored the image of “symbol of faith” and Uttar Pradesh’s chief minister, Yogi Adityanath.
The cops’ profound love and adoration for their new political master didn’t end here.
It said, “This is a matter of great shame for our society.”

This came after Bengaluru Police lodged a criminal case against a woman for making “objectionable posts”on her Facebook page which allegedly depicted Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath in “poor light.”
A First Information Report or FIR was filed against the woman on complaint of BJP Yuva Morcha members, said Additional Commissioner of Police (Crime) S Ravi.
Meanwhile, Adityanath on Wednesday said that there were similarities between the postures of Surya Namaskar and namaaz.

Adityanath’s statement assumes significance in light of age-old hatred for India’s Muslim community and the rise in politics with the help of militant Hindutva.
