Desi Cartman Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 LUCKNOW: UP chief minister Mayawati’s penchant for raising statues in memory of her mentor Kanshi Ram and other Dalit icons continues to drill holes into the state exchequer. This, while UP reels under a severe drought. ( Watch ) The government’s apathy is evident from budgetary allocation made on Monday. The budget document shows government has made a demand of Rs 656 crore for erecting statues in Lucknow. Contrary to this, no fund is being allocated from the state’s treasury for drought relief measures to provide succour to lakhs of farmers facing starvation. Leaders of all opposition parties, including Leader of Opposition Shivpal Yadav, Congress Legislature Party leader Pramod Tiwari and Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Om Prakash Singh flayed the government for its "obvious indifference and apathy towards the drought." They were also critical of the chief minister's craving for new aircraft in her fleet. A special Rs10 crore provision has been made to purchase a helicopter. Unanimously condemning Mayawati for allocating much more money for memorials and statues than for fighting the prevailing drought, some opposition members even staged a walk-out to mark their protest against the "blatant extravagance". ......................................................... :whack::whack::whack::whack::whack::whack: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anonymous Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 The icing on the cake is that she has demanded Rs.250 cr for drought relief in UP from the center. :whack: Some retard writer was justifying Mayawati's spending spree on her own statues. I just dont understand the justification of building memorials and statues as a symbol of Dalit pride. When the poor dont have food to eat whats pride for? Can they eat pride?

Don't you know that the poor are not supposed to eat anything? If they get to eat, they don't remain poor. And if they don't remain poor and dalit, what use are they to Mayawati? They are supposed to stay hungry and when election comes, they are supposed to exchange their votes for a plate of rice with chicken curry and booz.
