Security for STATUES,not for people

Mayawati plans to dig yet another unnecessary hole in the state's treasury by setting up Special Security Force to protect her beloved statues,parks and mansion.

Uttar pradesh government on Thursday tabled a bill called State Notified Area Security Force 2010 .The bill focuses to raise a force which would be deployed at Ambedkar memorial Lucknow and Noida);kanshi ram memorial and sanskritik sthal ;ramabai ambedkar maidan;buddha vihar;kanshi ram green eco park.Setting- up of this force would cost rs 53 crores with an annual recurring budget of rs 10 crores.

A state which faces serious threats from terror attacks and naxalism wants to protect the dumb and mum statues instead of worrying the security of its people.When all other states are gearing up to moderinise their police and equip them with latest technology weapons to deal with this modern day terrorism all that concerns mayawati is her 6,000 crore monuments.Even the supreme court has stayed construction on some of the sites which mayawati wants to taken care by the special force.

A state with alarming crime rates and very low police-to-people ratio precisely 83 policemen per lakh citizens of UP ,the state do not want make Uttar Pradesh a safe and secure paradise but is only concerned about the these stone structures instead of living beings.In my opinion this money can be used more judiciously in modernization and makeover of uttar pradesh police .May be the matter of concern for the CM should be the 35,ooo vacant posts in uttar pradesh police .

But the only reason i see that Mayawati is so much concerned and worried about the security of these statues because i think see remembered the visuals of the similar statues of Saddam Hussain being pulled down by the american forces in Iraq and she would not like to see the similar treatment to her own monuments after state elections in 2012.
