Rampur: Mulayam Singh Yadav will be 75 tomorrow and his Samajwadi Party has planned a grand two-day birthday bash beginning today. The show-stopper will be the party chief riding an imported Victorian buggy through the Uttar Pradesh town of Rampur, which looks like Christmas came early. Bunches of red and white balloons line spruced-up roads along with big banners wishing Mr Yadav a happy birthday. Dividers have a new lick of paint. A 100 "welcome gates" have been put up. The Samajwadi Party rules UP and it shows in the preps. "All departments are working to ensure it is a grand welcome," said Rampur's disrict magistrate, CP Tripathi. Senior UP minister Azam Khan, who is organising the show in his hometown, said, "Last time we had welcomed him in a vintage car, this time for our leader we have imported a Victorian buggy. On the route, the cultural department is organising plays and other programmes." A 75-foot-long cake will vie for attention. Mulayam Singh is scheduled to land in Rampur at 3 pm on Friday and that is when he will go around town in the buggy. In the evening, he will attend a performance by popular singers Hans Raj Hans and the Sabri brothers. Mr Yadav will cut the giant cake at midnight. His son and Uttar Pradesh chief minister Akhilesh Yadav and the entire top brigade of the Samajwadi Party will be in Rampur for the celebrations. On Saturday morning Mulayam Singh will lay the foundation stone for a medical college at Azam Khan's Jauhar University. UP capital Lucknow too is celebrating. Big hoardings line the main roads of the city as eager partymen try to better each other's birthday wishes for the SP chief. Meanwhile : Samajwadi Party leader Azam Khan kicked off yet another controversy by his irate comments during the birthday celebration of party chief Mulayam Singh Yadav. When questioned about the funding for the grand event, an irate Khan said that it is funded by terror group Taliban and underworld don Dawood Ibrahim. "Why does it matter where the money for celebrations is coming from? The celebrations are being funded by terror organisations like Taliban and Dawood," he sarcastically said. The grand celebration for the SP chief's 76th birthday in Rampur include a 75-feet-long cake and a Victorian 'buggy' hired from London. "The birthday celebrations will start from tomorrow midnight and Netaji (Mulayam) along with Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav will reach Rampur in afternoon," SP spokesman Rajendra Chaudhary said. A special Victorian 'buggy' (horse-drawn carriage) would carry Mulayam in the stronghold of his trusted lieutenant and Azam Khan for a distance of around 14 km from the CRPF camp to Maulana Ali Jauhar University, sources said. On the day of his birthday, the SP supremo will lay the foundation stone of a medical college, besides addressing a public meeting. Uttarakhand Governor Aziz Qureshi and several other dignitaries will attend the function at the Mohammad Ali Jauhar University. The Samajwadi Party has decided to celebrate Singh's 76th birthday as 'Samta Diwas'. Khan had also stirred a controversy on Thursday by suggesting that Taj Mahal and the income generated through it should be handed over to the Wakf Board contending that the monument is a mausoleum. "Taj Mahal is a mausoleum and each mausoleum is 'Waqf' and comes under the Sunni Central Waqf Board," he had said. In a sarcastic note, he had added, "the building constructed over the mausoleum is a different matter. If it is a cheap building, then it would be under Waqf Board and if it is an expensive building, generating revenue, then the Indian government will take the money."
