BJP leader and former Union Minister Sanjeev Balyan on Monday wrote a letter to Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, complaining about the attitude of the police.
In his letter, Balyan also raised the issue of his security being withdrawn. He alleged that his security had been taken away because he raised his voice against the corruption of the Muzaffarnagar Police.
He further wrote in the letter that he was attacked during the Lok Sabha elections, and if he is attacked again, the responsibility would lie with the state government officials.
He also informed CM Yogi Adityanath about the encroachment of land belonging to a temple and dharamshala in Khanupur village by Mansurpur Distillery.
Former Union Minister Sanjeev Balyan, in the letter, said: "The land of the temple and dharamshala in Khanupur village was illegally transferred with the collusion of previous government officials to Mansurpur Distillery. On January 1, in connivance with Muzaffarnagar police, the distillery occupied the land and filed false cases against the villagers."
He said the Muzaffarnagar police officers may not have brought this matter to the Chief Minister's notice.
The BJP leader said that he had gone to Mansurpur police station along with the villagers in protest on 12 January. He also informed that he lodged complaints with higher police officers about involvement of Muzaffarnagar police in dispute over property some time back for which no actions have been undertaken so far.
He wrote: "Considering your life's journey, I am confident that you will take just action regarding the land encroachment of the temple and dharamshala."
About the withdrawal of his security, Balyan said that though he was not worried about himself, but the way the police behaved with the former Union Minister suggested something was wrong with BJP workers.
