Raising questions over the law and order in Uttar Pradesh, the former Chief Minister demanded beefed-up security for saints and other holy men in the state.
"Like in Rajasthan, the attack on a temple priest in Gonda district by the land mafia to grab the temple land is shameful. Now, even the saints are not safe under the government led by a saint. What more worse in law and order can that be?" the BSP leader tweeted.
