Lucknow: Strongly criticising Akhilesh Yadav-led Samajwadi Party government in Uttar Pradesh, Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) supremo Mayawati here on Sunday made a fresh demand for imposition of President`s rule in the state.
“Law and order has collapsed in Uttar Pradesh. Under the present rule, ``goonda raj`` is rampant across the state,” Mayawati told media here.

“The Samajwadi Party is no longer worried about corruption. They are promoting criminal elements in the state,” he added.
