  • A newspaper clipping claiming Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said his job is to save cows and not women, is false as the fake quote originated from a satire website in 2018. The newspaper clipping which features an image of Adityanath with the headline which when translated reads, "Another irresponsible statement by Yogi Adityanath, he says our job is to protect cows, not girls." The clipping is viral in the backdrop of a 19-year-old Dalit girl from Hathras, Uttar Pradesh succumbing to her injuries in Safdarjung hospital, Delhi on September 29, 2020. The young woman had been allegedly brutally assaulted and raped by four upper caste men on September 14, 2020, while she was collecting animal fodder in the fields. All the four accused have been since arrested. The state administration has also faced a lot of criticism as in the early hours of September 30, 2020, the Hathras Police were accused of cremating the victim's body without consent from the family, which the police have denied.
