Yesterday in Lucknow, the capital of UP witnessed a maha rally on the the occasion of 25th anniversary of BSP. What caught the attention of nation was the extravagant conduct of rally. Mayawati, the self declared savior of dalits was greeted with a huge garland made of 1000 rupee notes[see picture]. A week ago Mayawati was reluctant to give away compensation for the dead and injured in Ram Janki temple stampede for lack of money. She passed off the duty to the central government. The rally had caused anger nationwide. Estimates say that around 200 crore rupees were spent on rally. The whole UP government machinery were in their toes for the rally.Public money was used for the rally. Her state is known for high poverty level. If she was the true messiah of dalits she could have used the money for dalit's upliftment.In a country where millions live under poverty this was a shoddy act of celebration. Who could explain such pity act? Still her supporters seems undeterred in their support for Bahenji.
Numerous occasions like this have occurred in UP for Bahenji. Hundreds of Crores of rupees were spent for statues in UP. Most of the statues were of non other than herself. She seems to be modern Faroah or Nero. Her birthdays are celebrated usually in huge bash. I don't understand why the followers still idolizes her. Even in state like Kerala there are followers for her party.Thousands see Mayawati as a social reformer. She has reasons for everything. Mayawati is the leader of a state level party called BSP, yet she nurses the dream of becoming the prime minister of India. If that comes true then that day would be a doomsday for India.
