Yes, people are sick of the goonda raj prevalent in UP, but saying Amitabh Bachchan has lost his respect would be going a bit too far. As for UP being a crime-free state, nobody claims that, not even Samajwadi Party I believe, leave alone Big B, who only says 'jurm yahan hai kam'. The National Crime Record Bureau report says that too and the report is brought out by the Central government, not the state government. The catch is that the incidence of crime is less compared to other states. The rate of crime per lakh of population is less in UP when compared to other states. So, for an area which could have a large number of cases, the rate will still be less as the area would have more number of people.
