"Mafias are flourishing in Jharkhand. Uttar Pradesh is right next to you. Go and see, no one will play with the law and order because if someone does so or tries to disrupt a festival, then the ticket to Yamraj is booked. (The accused are dealt with very strictly). Whether it is security or good governance, only BJP can provide it," CM Yogi said while addressing a gathering here.
