Uttar Pradesh has long been a hotbed for criminal gangs involved in illegal activities such as extortion, kidnapping, and smuggling. In recent months, the state government has intensified its efforts to dismantle these gangs, carrying out large-scale crackdowns and making numerous arrests. The rise of notorious gangsters in the state has put immense pressure on local law enforcement.
Authorities have employed advanced technology, including drones and surveillance systems, to track gang movements and communications. While these measures have led to significant arrests, the fight against gang culture in UP is far from over, and the state continues to face challenges in bringing these groups to justice.
