Under this new reshuffle yesterday, police chief of many districts including Etawah, Allahabad, Bareilly, Jhansi and Etah have been changed.

The Chief Minister said in the State Assembly on Tuesday that criminals will not enjoy any political patronage and strict action would be taken against them.
