Fateh Bahadur with Yogi Adityanath
Amid the tension between the BJP government and the organization in UP, six-time MLA Fateh Bahadur has said that his life is in danger. Fateh Bahadur has alleged that the UP police officer along with some mafia wanted to kill him. Fateh Bahadur’s allegation is also in discussion because Bahadur hails from Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s district.
What did Fateh Bahadur say?
Speaking to TV-9 Bharatvarsha, Fateh Bahadur said that his life was in danger. Any accident can happen to me anytime. The UP police officers are conspiring with the mafia to carry out this tragedy. A donation of one crore rupees has also been collected for this. I have told all these things to the Chief Minister, but even after 10-12 days no action has been taken.
We have also written to Union Home Minister Amit Shah and BJP President JP Nadda in this regard.

Yogi advised
In 2019, while speaking on stage in front of Yogi Adityanath during an event in Gorakhpur, Fateh Bahadur called upon the Yogi government to provide employment and dignity to the youth. Fateh Bahadur’s statement angered the CM and attacked him on the stage itself.
Yogi said that we won in Gorakhpur only because of development. We are continuously working to engage the youth and set up factories. Will the youth not get employment from these factories?
The Yogi continued – Everyone should avoid tarnishing their accomplishments unnecessarily by talking like this from the stage.
