Please search for same in web.
Finally I would like to mention Besides all the above achievements,
to honor these backward-born great “Saints, Gurus and Seers”, various
magnificent spots, memorials, museums, parks, etc have been constructed
in the state.
‘’The amount spent was nothing very very less than
what the media as mentioned, The stones where brought from Naxal
infected area, this also helped to boost the economy of these very
backward regions of Uttar Pradesh and also provided employed for the
“Poor laborers” in construction of these memorial.
These have become holy place for the oppressed people, who are visiting theses monuments from all across India.
The money spent will be recovered from the public visiting the
memorials and Parks, there is 10rs cost for the ticket, recently on Jan
15 2014 more than 15 lacks people who attended the rally more than 15
lacks people visited the memorials, paying 10 rs for enterence fee,
please count the amount, and the memorial have already recovered the
most of the amount, and will continue to recover the money in future
also.
Employment was provided to the bahujan Samaj people. So there was no waste of money.
So the critics may continue to make a noise about the obscene
amount of money that Mayawati has spent on her pet memorials. But ask
the community, the largest percentage of which has always been poor, the
dontroden people and they have just one thing to say: After centuries, a
leader has been able to give them a sense of equality and the power to
dream BIG and no price is too high for that.
There is saying “Jis ko na de Maula, usko de Asif-ud-Daula” (To whom God does not give,Asif-ud-Daula provides)
Reading the above line and considering the rationality how they came to
existence critics can come to know the motive of mayawati and the
saying. “Jisko na de maula, usko de Behan mayawatiji.”

v Poor condition of highways in UP: Maya sends letter to PM
v Minister Mayawati has shot off two letters to prime minister Manmohan
Singh. While the first one is to draw the attention of Singh towards
the poor conditions of national highways passing through UP, the other
one is about short supply of fertilisers.
v A DVD with footage of
pot holed roads has been attached with the letter to make prime
minister have an idea of reality. So far, Mayawati has written six
letters to the prime minister in last one week. The four letters earlier
were on providing reservations to Muslims, Jats, the poor among the
upper caste and implementing quota in private sector.
v In the
first letter, Mayawati has informed the prime minister that the
conditions of the highways have turned from bad to worse following heavy
rains during the monsoon. Interestingly, in first of its kind
endeavour, the chief minister has also attached a DVD having footage of
pathetic condition of the national highways (93, 119, 74, 72A, 73, 76,
76E, 75E, 7, 19, 232, 91A, 92 and 97) passing through UP.
v
Mayawati has requested prime minister to pay immediate attention towards
the problem because bad condition of roads is also leading to loss of
human life due to accidents. The condition of the roads, she said, is
also affecting the development of the state. She has reminded the prime
minister of the letter written by the UP government to the Union
minister of national highways and transport, regarding release of funds
for repair of national highways. As many as 43 national highways pass
through UP. The total length of the highways is 6681 km, of which 3178
km comes under the state public works department.
v Mayawati has
also reminded the prime minister that Rs 900 crore were sanctioned for
the repair and construction of national highways in the financial year
2010-11. However, only Rs 50.50 have been released so far. Further, she
said for the financial year 2011-12, Rs 737 crore were earmarked.
However, money has not been released despite the fact that the state
government has sent an estimate of Rs 683.64 crore for renovation of
highways. “After seeing the DVD you will come to know about the reality
and the urgency required to tackle the situation,” she has stated in the
letter.
v The second letter is about inadequate supply of
fertilizers to UP. In her letter, Mayawati has said that UP government
has requested for 67 lakh metric tonne of fertilizers (40 lakh metric
tonne of urea, 12 lakh metric tonne of DAP, 0.50 lakh metric tonne of
MAP, 1 lakh metric tonne of DAP light, 8.50 lakh metric tonne of NPK,
2,50 lakh metric tonne of MOP and 2.50 lakh metric tonne of SSP) from
the Central government. However, the Centre has provided only 53.15 lakh
metric tonne of fertilisers (33 lakh metric tonne of urea, 9.15 lak
metric tonne DAP, six lakh metric tonne NPK, 2,50 lakh metric tonne MOP
and 2.50 lakh metric tonne of SSP) so far.
v Mayawati has also
reminded the prime minister that UP was awarded best performing state
for bumper crops in 2010-11 financial years. The BSP government took a
number of measures, including better electricity supply, availability of
seeds and fertilisers and better procurement for increasing income of
the farmers, to boost agriculture production in the state. In order to
sustain high productivity, state government will have to provide good
quality fertilisers to the farmers. However, despite several requests,
the Central government is not cooperating with the state government,
Mayawati has complained in the letter.
v After coming to power
Maya has written over 100 letters to PM on different issues demanding
funds for development of the state. However, none of her demands have
been met by the Congress led UPA government.

“Mayawati meets PM; seeks flood relief”
IANS First Published : 18 Oct 2010 09:51:29 PM IST
NEW DELHI: Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati met Prime Minister
Manmohan Singh Monday to seek flood relief aid of Rs.2,351 crore, a
special package for Bundelkhand and Poorvanchal regions and approval of
the Taj International Airport (TIA) project.
During the meeting,
which lasted more than an hour, Mayawati urged the prime minister to
approve pending projects of the state and sanction Rs.5,962 crore under
the Pradhan Mantri Gramin Sadak Yojana (PMGSY).
Talking to
reporters later, Mayawati said she had raised “important issues”
concerning the state. The chief minister, who was accompanied by party
MP Satish Chandra Misra, said the prime minister gave her an assurance
that the state government’s demands will be considered seriously.
Mayawati said 12 districts in western Uttar Pradesh had been declared
as “disaster affected.” She said a total of 5,959 villages in 33
districts had suffered losses due to floods, more than 8 lakh hectares
of cultivable land had been affected and over 425 people had died.
The chief minister said though she had written letters to the prime
minister on Sep 22 and Sep 29 to seek flood aid, no relief had been
provided. She said the central government had also not bothered to send a
team to assess the damage.
Mayawati said her government’s
proposals of Rs.5,962 crore under the Pradhan Mantri Gramin Sadak Yojana
and Rs.9,700 crore under the Rajiv Gandhi Gramin Vidyutikaran Yojana
had been pending with the central government.
Calling for special
economic assistance for backward areas like Poorvanchal and
Bundelkhand, she said the government had sought the package for
all-round development of the state.
She said the Rs.3,506 crore
package announced by the central government for Bundelkhand was
insufficient. Mayawati expressed regret that the central government had
not sanctioned the Taj International Airport (TIA) at Jewar though the
state government had agreed to the central government’s suggestions on
contractual obligations.
Mayawati said TIA was feasible under the
Green Field Airport Policy 2008. She said another international was
necessary for Delhi due to increasing flow of traffic at the existing
airport. She said that second airports in 150-km radius had been
approved for Navi Mumbai and Kannur.
Pointing out that the state
government had decided to create an additional power generation capacity
of 25,000 MW in the next seven years; she said the ministry of coal
should allocate coal linkages for setting up thermal plants in the
state.

Centre must find solutions to floods in Bihar and UP: Mayawati.
If the rivers emanating from Nepal could be tamed by constructing high
dams, the two states would be benefited on power and irrigation fronts,
she pointed out.
Mayawati said that she would meet the Prime
Minister soon with a request for taming the rivers emanating from Nepal
which cause floods every year in the two states causing heavy damage to
standing crops, human and cattle lives.
She said she would ask the concerned central ministers to bear the cost of taming the rivers.

which is given in a government published listing its achievements of
four years.

activities stated in the booklet, the Hon’ble Chief Minister, Ms

one month, made surprise inspections to take stock of law and order
situation and creime control in all the 72 districts, together with
development and public welfare activities, with strict action taken
against authorities, if anything wanting was detected. Necessary
directions and guidance for improvement were also given.
In a
nutshell, the four years of the Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Hon’ble Ms
Mayawati Ji led government has been “ highly promising and the best” in
the area of “development and public welfare”.
Every policy of Uttar Pradesh Govt. is based on ‘Sarvajan Hitay – Sarvajan Sukhay’
Important and Historic Initiative for Law & Order and Crime Control
1. Since the formation of the present government in Uttar Pradesh, on
13 May, 2007 till date, an Unprecedented environment of “peace and order
and communal harmony, free from injustice, crime and fear” has been
created by giving “top priority” to “law-order and crime control” for
which several important decisions had to be taken with iron resolve at
the different levels e.g:
2. Rigorous and effective action taken against more than 1 lakh known notorious criminals/Mafiosi.
3. 1.707 notorious criminals detained under the most stringent “National Security Act (NSA)”.
4. Strict action taken under the “Gangster Act” against about 40,000 professional offenders.

heads, were arrested, including those “carrying on the head a reward”
upto Rs.5 lakh.

self defense.
7. Also, thousands of anti-social elements/goondas
and white-collar criminals were sent to their right place i.e. behind
the bars in the “jail”.
8. For the first in the state, action was also taken against “ influencial people and those occupying high positions”
found guilty of breaching the law, establishing the motto “all wequal
before the law” under which several ministers, ex-ministers, MPs and
legislators were proceeded against leagally with due strictness.
9. “Historic action” continues, without let or hinderance, against arrant criminals and Mafiosi to “confisticat their
ill-gotten wealth” in order to break the economic backbone. Property worth more than Rs. 443 crore forfeited so far.
10. Elimination of fierce dacoits – synonymous of terror, Rs. 5 lakh

the previous government, 10,000 cases filed through a “special campaign”

14. The area of
‘jungle raj’, goonda tax, ‘mafia rule’ and ‘anarchy’ inherited in
legacy, ends, entirely due to the “missionary and struggling” efforts of
Hon’ble Chief Ninister Ms. Mayawati JI. People, coming out of the
suffocating “jungle raj”, breathing in, today, the wiff of fresh air of
the “rule of law by law”.
15. The result of such strict action
was that an environment of “ communal harmony” continued to exist and no
untoward incident occurred in the whole of the state, in light of the
court decision on the very sensitive Ram Janmbhoomi/Babri Masjid “case”.
The peaceful conditions prevailed in Uttar Pradesh, there was calm and
quiet in other states of the country as well.

Uttar Pradesh is much less than even the national average.

The effort to secure “justice” in every matter and at every level to
every segment of the society and the sarv-samaj, the poor people,
