Yogi Adityanath, the chief minister of Uttar Pradesh, just received a death threat once more, but this time it came through “Dial 112.” Yogi Adityanath, the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, has received another death threat. This time, an anonymous person called ‘Dial 112’ and threatened CM Yogi Adityanath. Following the threat, security authorities were notified and began an investigation. In the Sushant Golf City police station area, a case has been launched against an unknown person under sections 506 and 507 of the IPC and section 66 of the IT Act.

According to the information, on the evening of April 23, a message was received on WhatsApp number ‘Dial 112’. Shikha Awasthi, the communication officer, picked up on this message in which CM Yogi was threatened with death. Awasthi took a screenshot of the message and promptly notified the higher officer. Police are now attempting to track down the accused.

Notably, this comes just days after Atiq Ahmed, a mafia-turned-politician, and his brother Ashraf were shot dead in police custody by three assailants while being transported for routine medical checks in Prayagraj. The entire state was placed on high alert, and security in Prayagraj and Lucknow was increased.

Not First Threat To CM Yogi Adityanath

This is not the first time CM Yogi Adityanath has faced such threats. He’s been threatened several times. He was threatened with death on Facebook a week ago. The post was uploaded on Facebook by Aman Raza of Baghpat. The individual threatened CM Yogi in the post. Soon after the post went viral, the police swooped in and arrested the offenders.

Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde received a death threat only in April. According to sources, an anonymous caller dialled the Maharashtra police control centre and delivered a death threat, adding,  “I will blow up Eknath Shinde,” before disconnecting the call abruptly. The Maharashtra police received a call on the emergency line 112 from someone threatening to blow up the state’s Chief Minister Eknath Shinde. When the police received the threatening call, they promptly went into action and tracked down the caller’s location. The caller, a resident of Mumbai’s Dharavi district, was later detained by Pune police.

The caller was under the effect of alcohol at the time of the call, according to the interrogator. In April, Shiv Sena (Uddhav Thackeray) leader and Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Raut got a threat SMS. According to news agency ANI, the threat came from the Lawrence Bishnoi gang, who warned he would be slain in Delhi like Punjabi singer Sidhu Moose Wala. According to the police, Sanjay Raut filed a complaint, and an investigation is currently underway.
