last say i saw some news about Mayawati,our Uttar Pradesh's chief minister inaugurating a park whose construction is worth 700 crore.i was shocked as well as surprised to hear this news.so much money being wasted on for a park where many of our Indian families are still struggling to fetch two meals a day?would it not be considered as waste of money?would they have not invested this huge amount in some social welfare work?what do you feel about this matter?

Actually "Bahenji" wants to be the next Prime Minister of India. She has no concerns, whatsoever, with the problems of the poor farmers and common man of Utter Pradesh. She clearly gives her "Donation Targets" to Police Department every month and strictly follows up with them. Have you ever seen the Roads of Utter Pradesh? You cannot drive or travel there without crying or may even vomit due to huge holes and bumps on the roads. "Bahenji" has converted the whole Utter Pradesh into a dustbin. Sometimes she changes the name of a city, and sometimes she give a new name to some other city of Utter Pradesh. There is law and order and crime rate is increasing day by day. Everywhere in Utter Pradesh, there is only one power - "Money Power" For "Bahenji," Cheif Minister's post is only a way to earn as much money as possible in order to get succeed in her ultimate goal of becoming Prime Minister of India. "Bahenji" is so much arrogant and has a lot of proud of herself that she now has placed her "Statue" in that Dalith Museum Park along with Dr. Ambedkar, and now she wants that people put a garland on her status and worship her like a goddess.

No dear, it is not like that... Actually, Utter Pradesh is my native place. I belong to Mathura, Utter Pradesh. My wife is also from Haathras, Utter Pradesh. So, in this way both my "Sasuraal" and "Ghar" are in Utter Pradesh. So, more than me who knows about "Bahenji" better?. Whenever I go back to visit my relatives in Mathura/Goverdhan/Hathras/Aligarh/Agra, etc...as soon as we reach Utter Pradesh border, Bahenji's progress work and development tell for themselves. I have seen, whenever she comes to tour a district over there, common man is not allowed to meet her and she know that very well. She always goes to visit those places which are already well prepared and decorated for her visit before her arrival. So, she herself do not want to see the real face of Utter Pradesh...Living in a dreamworld of her own... She was already an "unlucky Bahenji" for UP, and now she wants to become "Goddess of UP" by placing her statue over there...shame on her!

i completely agree to your point.i too am a native of U.P. and now am in M.P. so i too know the situation in U.P. as well.have you recently visited Varanasi?i would avoid you to not.the place has completely turned into a mass of worn out roads and leaving it more risky to accidents.its the oldest of all living city all over the world and one of the major tourist spot of the country,yet our dear behnji is not putting an eye to improve situation there.

wow,looks like i touched your paining nerve. did i steal your topic? please don't take me otherwise as i don't have my emoticons to show you my true emotions. looks like you have completely kept a track of her activity.yes i agree behnji is exploiting her present position as a minster.she certainly should have taken up major decisions about roads in U.P. i too have seen some of the cities in U.P. where for making new fly overs,they have ruined the existing roads and no nobody is paying more attention to rectify the mistake.

Hi Khare! This is really debatable whether such huge park was required at all where billions of public money was spent. However, the permission to complete it was accorded by Hon'ble Supreme Court of India, (after legal battle between the State and Central Government) therefore, it was not possible to stop the project. I understand that it would be wonderful and unique park and given the chance, I would like to visit it. I have seen it built in the past, as it is in the outskirts of NOIDA, near Delhi.

You are very right in your observations, I also wish she could understand the importance of providing basic health facilities to rural poor and would have spent the public money on providing more electricity, water and roads.

yes i did see in news that supreme court has given permission for the construction.the project shouldn't been left in between as it would have been more wastage then.they should have considered this before starting up the project.they could have raised many hospitals with so much of money or they could have invested in some other much essential projects that our country needs.

yes 700 crores is such a huge amount.we are facing so much of power shedding these days because they say there is no power available.if she could have invested that much in raising up a power plant,half of this power shedding problem would have got sorted.i strongly disagree to the point she is trying to make putting on these statues all around.i have never seen any statue which is worth of lakhs.

There are two things to ask in all this. First of all what park could really cost 700 crores!! And the second is how much of the said 700 crore actually went into the park and not into the swiss banks abroad. I think these are really the heights of corruption and unfair practices by the politicians here in India. I think they are testing the patience of people to an extent where people are now reaching the break down stage. The Anna Hazare uprising is just the tip of the iceberg, the bigger things are about to follow!! Cheers! Ram

yes the movement itself can not resolve the issues lying deep beneath.there need to be an anna hazare at each and every door step of our country's leaders.corruption is running so deep in nerves that its hard to eradicate all over.and more over i don't think it had a slightest of impact on any of our corrupt minister.yes you are completely right in doubting about the actual amount been used in this park.more than half of the amount could have gone in behnji's swiss account.she is too busy filling up her own pocket so that her later generations should not have to move a bit to sustain their lives easily.

our politicians are too busy filling up their own pocket and they pay no attention to social welfare.there is nothing better that we can speak about these politicians.we need thousands of anna hazare to keep this politician out of our country.i don't think his movement had slightest of impact on all of these.yes Kalamadi must have forgotten everything by now and would now be engaged in planning about new scam.

Hello Khare, That is the height and this is the problem with us. I have seen that park in NOIDA and yesterday only i was passing by from there.I had the feeling why she is allowing to spend that much money on this park.She should think over to repair old parks,roads and other things in UP that will be much better. Oh yes 700 crores is too much and will be sufficient to have at least a food for one time a day for million of people who struggle to get it.

hello sj and father, good morning, i just had a view of the park in news and now again with the link that you provided here.this is a act of high irresponsibility.spending so much on a park where she will be putting on her own statues and elephants while there is so much of improvement required in Uttar Pradesh.they have completely ruined the state.no roads,all full of big dungeons where you have no surety to arrive safe at your destination. Do our politicians have nothing better to think about?

yes the park must be beautiful enough if so much was invested on the infrastructure but its certainly not a good news for us.i feel so painful watching this that they invested so much in a park.i don't consider it as a true development.you haven't got a look of the roads and economical conditions in U.P.the whole state is having completely messed up roads and travelling is not at that ease and safe as it used to be earlier.they have so much of problems to pay more attention and they are involved in nothing but pleasing them.
