Yogi Adityanath Threatened in Mumbai: Security Meas
ures Tightened Following Serious Call
Yogi Adityanath, the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, has recently faced a serious death threat from an anonymous caller in Mumbai. The caller demanded that Yogi Adityanath resign within 10 days, stating that he would face consequences similar to those of Baba Siddiqui if he did not comply. Upon receiving this threat, the Mumbai Police took swift action to ensure his safety and to investigate the origin of the call.
Mumbai Police’s Response and Detainment of Suspect
Mumbai Police received the call through their Traffic Control Cell and immediately began an investigation. In a critical development, they have detained a 24-year-old woman from the Mumbai Metropolitan area in connection with the threat. While specific details about her identity are still emerging, police are conducting interrogations to determine her motivations and any affiliations.
Previous Threats Against Yogi Adityanath
This incident is not isolated; Yogi Adityanath has been the target of multiple threats over the past few years, likely due to his administration’s strong stance against crime and organized illegal activities. In recent years:
- January 11, 2021: A threatening call led to an arrest in Ballia.
- August 9, 2022: A WhatsApp threat prompted police action in Mumbai.
- April 25, 2023: A WhatsApp message threatened both PM Modi and CM Yogi Adityanath, sparking an investigation in Deoria.
Yogi Adityanath’s Anti-Crime Campaign Likely Motivating Threats
Yogi Adityanath’s administration has been vigilant in its campaign against criminals and mafias. This no-nonsense approach to crime has led to a crackdown on unlawful businesses, which many believe has caused fear among organized crime groups and gangs. These repeated threats, however, only seem to reinforce the government’s stance on combating crime.
Investigation Points to Worli Area as Threat Source
With many of these threats originating from the Worli area in Mumbai, police are closely examining whether a network or group in this zone is connected to the threats against Yogi Adityanath. They’re evaluating if there’s a broader conspiracy at play and are working alongside the Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) to address this possibility.
Enhanced Security for Yogi Adityanath
Given his position and the recent threats, Yogi Adityanath remains under tight security. Although no official statement has been made about the suspect’s full identity, sources close to the police suggest that more information may soon emerge after further verification.
