Lucknow, Dec 4 Two men have been arrested for allegedly using their mobile number to pose as Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s Officer on Special Duty (OSD) and using indecent language and even threatening people.

Gautam Palli SHO Rikesh Kumar Singh said: “The men have been booked under Indian Penal Code’s sections 419 (cheat by personation), 420 (cheating), and 507 (criminal intimidation) in an FIR at Gautam Palli police station after which they have been arrested.”
