"Aaj Uttar Pradesh danga mukt ho chuka hai... Humne tamancha (hand gun) sanskriti ko band kiya, aur yuvaon ke hanthon mein tablet dene ka karya humari sarkar kar rahi hai (Now Uttar Pradesh has been freed from the riots... We have stopped the street violence culture, and our government is doing the work of providing tablets to the youth," the CM said.
