Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has unleashed a fierce offensive against Chinese manja in Uttar Pradesh, categorically stating that deaths from this prohibited kite string amount to murder. The declaration aims to shock vendors and users into compliance amid growing public outrage over preventable losses.
Yogi highlighted the paradox of a total ban overshadowed by persistent black-market trade. He has mobilized law enforcement for a comprehensive statewide sweep, focusing on sales points, warehouses, and transit points with unyielding vigilance.
Special drives will uproot the distribution networks, with top brass overseeing daily updates to plug any loopholes. The CM drove home the point that this isn’t mere negligence—it’s a direct assault on safety, affecting innocents during joyous kite battles.
Reports of motorcyclists crashing after neck slashes or birds plummeting mid-flight have fueled this resolve. Yogi’s administration vows relentless pursuit, treating manja possession as a grave offense punishable by the full force of law.
This campaign reflects broader priorities: protecting vulnerable groups like kids and pets from a synthetic killer far deadlier than traditional threads. By fostering awareness and enforcement, Uttar Pradesh is set to pioneer a safer festive season, proving that public welfare overrides perilous practices.
