BSP demands Rs 80,000 Crores for UP

Bhujan Samaj Party MP's disrupted the proceedings in Parliament today demanding a Rs 80,000 Crore package for Uttar Pradesh and the development of two backward regions. The BSP has raised the pitch on the issue in recent days with UP Chief Minister Mayawati threatening to withdraw support to the Centre if it failed to provide the package and bring down prices of essential commodities.
If only the BSP party chief and UP chief minister Mayawati had her priorities set right and not spent Rs 500 crores on an Ambedkar Park with 62 Sandstone Elephants we would not have seen this day.
But who is to tell the all powerful Mayawati that spending Rs 500 crores on the park is not a good idea. This goes right to Milton Friedman's point about how people spend Other Peoples Money.
