LESSON 31

“I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World
War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.” - Albert Einstein

โ€œBSP the only alternative to Congress, BJPโ€


Party to build an equitable society






Mayawati

Bhagalpur: Uttrar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati said here on
Sunday that the Bahujan Samaj Party was committed to building an
โ€œequitableโ€ society and the party was the only alternative to the
Congress and Bharatiya Janata Party, whose โ€œpolicies are influenced by
big houses and brokers.โ€

Launching the BSPโ€™s campaign for the Lok Sabha polls in Bihar at
Sandis ground here, she alleged that both the Congress and the BJP had
โ€œgrabbed power on the support of big industrial players and brokers and
ruined the country during their stints in power.โ€


Well-being of all castes

โ€œThe countryโ€™s economy will never improve if its policies are being
influenced by big houses and brokers,โ€ the BSP leader said. She claimed
the current economic slowdown and price rise were result of the
policies followed by the Congress or the BJP-led governments and
promised that she would pursue the policies which would uplift all
sections the population. Ms. Mayawati said her party would ensure
reservations for the well-being of all castes without being confined to
the SC/STsโ€™ interests alone.

โ€œIt is high time the BSP should come to power at the Centre,โ€ she
said, claiming that the Opposition parties were worried because of the
BSPโ€™s โ€œclean, fair image and performance.โ€

โ€œThe BSP is the only party in the country which believes in doing
and not just making promises which is evident from the work being done
by it in Uttar Pradesh,โ€ Ms. Mayawati said. She alleged the rival
parties had done nothing for upper castes, scheduled castes, scheduled
tribes and minorities, but during elections they would try to mislead
them by announcing a plethora of schemes.

She was canvassing support for her partyโ€™s nominees, including Ajit
Sharma (Bhagalpur), M.K. Singh (Banka), Navin Shastri (Munger), Bhagwan
Das (Jamui), Madan Mohan Nishadh (Katihar), Asarfi Paswan (Khagaria),
Navin Kumar Singh (Purnia), Kuber Alam (Kishanganj), in Biharโ€™s
Bhagalpur, Kosi and Purnia divisions.

Expressing concern over large-scale migration of youths to other
States in search of jobs, she said if BSP was voted to power, it would
formulate a policy guaranteeing jobs to the unemployed in their
respective States. โ€” PTI

Mayawati big enough to drive choices


With States emerging as the principal battleground,Mayawati’s  political charisma
has shifted to a higher level-THREE BASKETS STUDY CIRCLE



How they stack up

                            

                               Mayawati         Manmohan Singh       L K Advani

Strong Leadership   100                           35                             30

Honesty                    100                          30                              25

Trustworthiness       100                          20                               0

In an image driven world, this Lok Sabha election stands out in that it
is dominated one personality
. Mayawati is the  transformative figure such as U.S. President Barack Obama โ€” Manmohan Singh and L K Advani is not even equivalent to Tony Blair, Mahathir Mohamad, Hugo Chavez
or Sheikh Hasina around whom votes crystallise
. A look at the popularity chart of the our leaders over
the last decade reveals that the single exception to this was Mayawati who emerged as a national leader.


Same question

The figures are drawn from various surveys conducted by the THREE BASKETS STUDY CIRCLE. The  surveys have always
asked the same open-ended question (โ€œWho would you like to be the Prime
Minister of the country?โ€) to a representative national sample of
respondents without offering any choices. About one-sixth of the
respondents offered only Mayawati as a  preference
.

The latest such survey, the THREE BASKETS STUDY CIRCLE poll, was carried out  in mid-January this year. It showed that only  single leader enjoyed
even 100 per cent support of the citizens for the Prime Ministerโ€™s
position.
 
Manmohan Singh at 12 per cent and Lal Krishna Advani at 10 per cent.


Other leaders

Other leaders who secured the support of at least one per cent or
more were: Sharad Pawar (1.0),Lalu Prasad (0.9), Nitish Kumar (0.8).

If asked directly to choose the โ€˜best leaderโ€™ for the country from
among Ms. Mayawati, Manmohan Singh and  Mr. Advani,  80 per
cent prefer  Ms.
Mayawati, Manmohan Singh 13 per cent,Mr. Advani at seven per cent.

When asked to compare certain attributes of these leaders,Ms. Mayawati was rated highest for being a strong leader, honest and trustworthiness leader .

These findings would disappoint Mr. Manmohan Singh and Mr. Advani.

They face a challenge from  within their parties
including their allies whose national rating stands at less than one per
cent.

Mayawati assures justice to all if voted to power

Jammu (PTI): Blaming the Congress and
BJP for the plight of people of different sections across the country,
Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati on Monday said that the party
would take all measures to ensure justice to all, especially the
downtrodden.

“There has been no change in the lives
of downtrodden and the poor in the last 60 years. It has either been
the Congress or BJP that ran governments since independence”, said the
BSP supremo while addressing an election rally at parade ground here.
The BSP has fielded contestants in five out of six Lok Sabha seats in
Jammu and Kashmir.

Attacking the past governments’, Ms.
Mayawati said, “Those belonging to sc/st and other backward sections
continue to face unemployment and poverty and the ruling parties at the
Centre have not taken measures to alleviate their problems.

The Congress and BJP have mostly made
economic policies and programmes to enhance the welfare of the rich,
she alleged and said, “it is because of these policies that we are
witnessing price escalation in the country.”

Madurai ground out of bounds for Maya rally

To Information Act. BSP general secretary, Suresh Mane, told reporters

Nandhabalan in Madurai on Monday
.

“We had given our application to the Madurai corporation commissioner

15 days ago and were granted permission, but now we have come to know


that there is a problem in providing the ‘no objection’ certificate


and we have asked for an explanation, ” he said.

Madurai and may visit the state again before she winds up her national

any other party because they have betrayed you and did not fulfil their
promises,โ€ Mayawati said.
