Uttar Pradesh Enhances Policing and Surveillance Amid Supreme Court Criticism

Analysed 1 Oct 2026·3 sources analysed·Uttar Pradesh, India·Politics
Uttar Pradesh Enhances Policing and Surveillance Amid Supreme Court CriticismPreviousNext

Since 2017, Uttar Pradesh has implemented significant police reforms under Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, including establishing seven police commissionerates, deploying over 14 lakh surveillance cameras, and enhancing enforcement with advanced interceptor vehicles. These measures aim to improve law and order, contrasting with the pre-2017 period marked by alleged mafia influence and weak policing infrastructure. Yogi defended the police following Supreme Court criticism of a case investigation, emphasizing challenges faced by law enforcement and ongoing efforts to strengthen public safety and accountability.
