C.M. reviews development works and law and order
Lucknow : November 27, 2007 The Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Km. Mayawati, while reviewing the law and order and development works here today, has directed to all district magistrates and SSPs / SPs of the state for taking effective steps to curb the crimes. She directed to senior police officers to launch a special drive to arrest the hardcore criminals, mafias, professional criminals having reward on them by making a list. The working and activities of the police force should give a message to the people that government would not spare any criminal indulging in disturbing the law and order situation of the state, she added. The Chief Minister was addressing a high level meeting of all district magistrates and SSPs / SPs of the state at Tilak Hall in Vidhan Bhawan here today. She said that the law and order and development are the top priorities of the state government. The officers should prove themselves by their behaviour and work culture according to the expectations of the people. She said that after the formation she had told about the priorities of the government. But after the review meetings at division level, it was found that the progress of development works and law and order situation was not improved remarkably, for which this meeting had been called. Any laxity would not be tolerated in this regard. The police administration should do the efforts for preventing the petty incidents turning into big one by way of mutual talks and compromise. Km. Mayawati said that immediate action should be taken on the incidents of harassment on SC/ST and the poor people belonging to religious minorities and upper castes, besides the harassment and possession of land by the mafias on the poor people of Sarva Samaj. FIR should be lodged immediately in these cases. If the number of FIR increases on the cases of weaker sections, SC/ST, women, religious minorities, then there should not be any worry. The FIR must be lodged in these cases, she said adding that the review would be made not on the number of FIRs, but the action being taken in these cases. The Chief Minister said though the incidents of kidnapping had decreased, but more could be done on this front. Security of religious places, bus stations, railway stations, public places and statues of the State should be tightened. The police station officers should ensure the communal harmony and peace in their areas and identify the communal elements. Terming the bomb explosions on November 23 at Lucknow, Faizabad and Varanasi as terrorist conspiracy, the Chief Minister said that the aim behind these bomb blasts was to create terror in the State. Taking it seriously, the government had taken effective steps and directives had been issued to the police officers, besides constituting an Anti-Terrorist Squad (ATS). U.P. COCA 2007 had been made for improving the law and order of the State, she added. Km. Mayawati directed that the public complaints regarding rural and urban development and civic amenities should be disposed of at priority basis. The people should feel that government was sensitive towards solving their problems. Last six months report regarding the works of priorities was not satisfactory. The progress and quality of development works of three districts was not found satisfactory during the surprise inspection. The poor people were not getting their due facilities. The administration had failed in checking power theft. She directed for special emphasis on providing medicines to poor people in hospitals, potable water, mid-day-meal scheme and employment generation. The Chief Minister said that development works regarding Dr. Ambedkar Gramin Samagra Vikas Yojna should be completed with full honesty. She said that no compromise should be made regarding the timely completion and quality of Manyawar Shri Kanshiramji Shahri Vikas Yojna for the development of cities, metros and towns. The responsibility lied on the D.M.s regarding the implementation of this scheme. She said adding that the beneficiaries should get their land removing the illegal possession by the powerful people. Scholarships and food grains distribution should be made timely. BPL families should get the government facilities and D.M.s must cooperate for the arrears payment of sugarcane farmers. Km. Mayawati said that the distribution of fertilizers and seeds should be ensured to the farmers. Besides, she warned that D.M.s would be held directly responsible for the incidents of suicides of farmers. The cases of deaths due to hunger should be prevented. She said that shortcomings were found in development works and disposal of people’s problems during the surprise inspection on November 13 last. She said that the district magistrate and commissioner were responsible for all development works on district and division level respectively. With a view to strengthen the control on district and division level officers the powers of district magistrate and commissioner had been increased. Now, they would have the powers of providing ACRs to district and division level officers. A Government order had also been issued in this regard. The Chief Minister said that the D.M.s, SSPs and other officers should remain in their offices compulsorily from 10 a.m. to 12 noon for solving people problems. Any time surprise inspection could be made in this regard. Km. Mayawati said that the D.M. and SSP would do the review at district level and the commissioner, DIG/IG at division level regularly. The senior officers should do spot visit for verification regarding the reality of development works and law and order on the basis of reports. With a view to making more effective the review works, the arrangements are being changed. Earlier the 70 districts were divided in four zones, out of which the review of three zones had been completed. The review of remaining zone would be made in the first week of next month. According to the new arrangement five districts would be selected among 70 districts for review. These five districts would be selected by the Chief Minister. The senior officers would do the spot verification regarding the progress of five districts on the basis of reports. The Chief Minister would make surprise visit to know the reality of progress of these five districts after the visit of senior officers. If any laxity was found in development works, then the concerning officer would be suspended, demoted or get adverse entry on the spot. This new arrangement would be implemented from January next. She directed for taking stern action against criminal elements creating obstacles in development works. The Chief Minister also directed to the officers for behaving in polite manner with public representatives of any political party saying that their proper works should be done. Stern action would be taken against concerning officers, if the complaints regarding over looking the MPs, MLAs were found. If any public representative pressurize for any wrong, then the complaints should be sent to the Principle Secretaries to C.M. Mr. Shailesh Krishna and Kunwar Fateh Bahadur, she said. The Cabinet Secretary Mr. Shashank Shekhar Singh, Chief Secretary Mr. Prashant Kumar Mishra, Principle Secretaries to C.M. Mr. V.K. Sharma, Mr. Shailesh Krishna, Kunwar Fateh Bahadur, Principle Secretary Home Mr. J.N. Chamber and DGP Mr. Vikram Singh were present, besides other senior officers. *************

Yes. Mayawati has become quite powerful after her victory in the UP assembly elections. Iβm sure the people of Maharashtra, fed up with local politicians, would like to try out her administrative expertise. | ||
JaiBheem all,
“When Elephant walks into streets, many dogs bark at , but will it harm reputation of elephant? Never ” Accusing Manyawar and Behenji without any logic is height of foolishness. We true followers dont answer to such nonsense things, but still… history already proved who got brainy and sense. Those who have brain and sense have become rulers, where as real Brainless and Senseless people have 100+ factions and still they will add up.. and become beggars and serving GANDIAN PARTIES..(RAM RAJYA). Democracy means majority. Majority People with BSP. Day by day it is becoming popular. Chamchas are vanishing. Those who have lost people’s support and crying from dust bin are talking against BSP leaders. I challenge them not to talk from Maharastra gullies, let them come to other states and prove their point and strength.
Regards,
Kodanda ram

Sindhia hits out at BJP
Staff Correspondent
HASSAN: The former Minister P.G.R. Sindhia on Wednesday dubbed the BJPβs βDharma Yatraβ as βkurchi yatraβ and alleged that the party had no commitment to improve the lot of the poor. He was addressing the district level Bahujan Samaj Party workersβ meeting here on Wednesday.
Mr. Sindhia said there was no caste issue in the BSP. He regretted that dynastic politics was being seen in all political parties. Now, the Congress was grooming Rahul Gandhi for key posts. As for as Janata Dal (S) was concerned, H.D. Deve Gowdaβs son had held the post of Chief Minister.
Coalitions
Mr. Sindhia said the coalition era in the country would continue for 10 more years. This was due to national leadership not being able to meet aspirations of the States. Regional parties would continue to hold the key, he said. Speaking to presspersons, Mr. Sindhia acknowledged the contribution of H.D. Deve Gowda for the development of Hassan district, but at the same he said the Janata Dal (S) president was also responsible for splitting the party.
Citizensβ Research Collective on SEZ
Sindhia opposes SEZs on agro land, demands debate
Mangalore, november 27, 2007: People opposing the Special Economic Zone in the district got a boost when former home minister and MLA P G R Sindhia declared his support for the cause. Addressing Bahujan Samaj Party workers at the party workersβ convention at Government Employeesβ Hall on Monday, Sindhia said that BSP opposed the setting up of SEZs. Industries should be set up but not by using any agricultural land. The Union government is approving a large number of SEZs in each state, he said.
The employees will not have any security as the owners are exempted from all the laws. βI cannot make out the difference between British rule and SEZ policy,β he said, and demanded a discussion on SEZs in the country.
He said that though the government had declared a waiver on loans, the number of farmers committing suicide had not stopped. A solution to this has to be found, for which a proper economic scheme for rural people has to be brought out, he said.
The disparity between the poor and rich is increasing, which will finally lead to a revolution and may affect the people, he said.
BSP is working for a society which is free of caste and religion. The party believes in brotherhood and in a society free from any problem and harassment. It is the only party which asks to shed differences in caste and religion, unlike others which base their politics on religion and caste. BSP has a bright future in the state, he said.
Earlier, speaking to reporters, Sindhia said he had welcomed the rebellion in the Janata Dal (S) led by former minister M P Prakash, but denied that he would attend the meeting convened by Prakash on November 28.
He said the JD(S) does not have any future in the state, and that it would be better if the rebel faction joined the BSP. He blamed the JD(S) and BJP for corruption in the administration over the last 20 months. All this will be revealed by the JD(S) and BJP leaders themselves during their blame game, he said.
He held Deve Gowda responsible for converting the party into a family party. He has no principles and wants power to remain only in and around his house, he added.

| ‘Congress, CPI(M), BJP politicising Taslima issue’ | |

Kozhikode: The Bahujan Samaj Party today accused the Congress, CPI(M) and BJP of politicising the problems arising out of stay of Bangladeshi writer Taslima Nasreen’s in India. “The Congress, heading the UPA at the Centre and the Left Front Government in West Bengal are enacting a political game in the name of Taslima. Both parties now stand exposed on the issue,” BSP national General Secretary, Suresh Mane told a press conference here. He said the BJP was also trying to capitalise on the situation by offering to accommodate her in Gujarat. Declining to spell out his party s stand on the issue, he said it was not necessary to raise “such a hue and cry” over the writer’s stay. There was no need for the BSP to adopt any particular stand as it was for the Centre to take a decision on it, he said, replying to a question. Mane claimed that the BSP had been receiving overwhelming response from all sections of society from across India after the party’s landslide victory in the last assembly elections in Uttar Pradesh. “In Kerala too, despite the polarised politics between the LDF and UDF, the BSP has been receiving tremendous support from different political parties to its policies in the matter of land reforms, Special Economic Zone, protection to farmers and opposition to Corporate culture”, he said. Mane said the party was all set to broaden its base in Kerala, with party supremo Mayawati scheduled to address a meeting in Thiruvnanthapuram on December 31. The BSP would contest the elections to all 20 Lok Sabha seats from the state without any alliance or support from any political party, he added.
Congress, CPI (M) and BJP politicising Taslima issue: BSP Kozhikode, November 28: The Bahujan Samaj Party on Wednesday lashed out at the Congress, CPI (M) and BJP, accusing them of politicising the problems arising out of Bangladeshi writer Taslima Nasreen’s stay in India. “The Congress, heading the UPA at the Centre and the Left Front Government in West Bengal are enacting a political game in the name of Taslima.

He said the BJP was also trying to capitalise on the situation by offering to accommodate her in Gujarat.

The BSP would contest the elections to all 20 Lok Sabha seats from the state without any alliance or support from any political party, he added. With merger of a faction of Congress (S) led by Paithal Padanakkandi and another by a splinter group of the Janata Dal (S) led by former state Minister Neelalohitadas Nadar, the BSP had grown in strength in the state, Mane claimed. “Two to three political parties have evinced interest in joining us next month,” he said, but refused to name them. Like in Uttar Pradesh, the BSP would take up the cause of all sections of society including Dalits, tribals, minorities Backward Classes and upper caste people in Kerala, he said. The margin of victory for both the fronts after every election in the state was narrowing and soon the BSP would pose a serious challenge to them by emerging as a powerful political force, he said. “Even if we can manage to gain five per cent of the total votes, we will be able to make a difference in next polls”, he said. Mane urged the CPI (M), heading the ruling LDF, to rehabilitate the tribals by offering them land. The state government, he said, should also refrain from adopting a “demoralising mindset” towards Christians. |
