He termed the demolition of Babri masjid some years back as a pre-conceived conspiracy by vested interest in order to harm communal harmony.
“Demolition of Babri masjid demolition is a black chapter in the history of country and state's communal harmony,” the Chief Minister said, adding his top priority is to ensure peace and harmony in Uttar Pradesh.
Yadav said some political parties tried to raise communal tension over some incidents due to vested interest which resulted in the Muzaffarnagar violence.
Communal tension was being spread in rural areas also to disturb peace and harmony but the authorities immediately took necessary steps and deployed army in Muzaffarnagar and Shamli area and controlled the situation, he said, adding 2,255 people, including elected members, have been arrested in this connection.
