Addressing a public gathering in Ghazipur district of eastern Uttar Pradesh, Adityanath said that under the present government's zero-tolerance policy, all such gangsters had been reduced to dust.
Adityanath said public money would not be spent on commemorating invaders and accused the previous governments of neglecting development and law and order.
While some managed to escape, several jumped from the second floor, and others got trapped, with some reportedly locking themselves inside bathrooms in a bid to escape the flames.
