Mayawati concerned only about her security: Kalraj

Does not meet people due to security concerns

PTI | February 9, 2012



BJP leader Kalraj Misra on Thursday said how can Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati can provide security to people when she herself was so much concerned about her own security.

"Mayawati is the only chief minister who neither meets people nor leaders and ministers...and the logic given for it is her security concerns...how can the chief minister, who is not able to take care of her security, provide security to the people of the state," he said in an election meeting here.

Referring to the good turnout of voters in the first phase of polling yesterday, he said it was an indication that people have decided to "uproot the corrupt BSP government".

"It is clear that people are in no mood to tolerate the BSP government," he said .

Misra alleged the ruling BSP in UP has encouraged corruption at every level.

On Congress general secretary Rahul Gandhi stating that his party will change the picture of UP in five years if voted to power, he said Congress ruled the country for 45 years and made UP a "bimaru (sick) state".
