This incident has fueled her self worth as the P.M material in future, She has fired the first salvo , that UPA might prop up a Dalit candidate in Shinde or Meira Kumar in the interim and thus preempt her goals She has been crying hoarse at the centre for not granting enough aid to meet her needs of the state and propagates that U.P is victimised for being the Dalit ruled state She could have meaningfully named schools, hospitals, housing colonies for the emancipation of Dalits to perpetuate herself eternally and then the criticism would have been less pointed and diluted The Dalit pride on monuments will not feed, cloth, or house the homeless. The court has not banned her activity on account of waste of public money In fact the money squandered by the congress scandals is astronomical considering the pittance she utilised The Congress alone and for political reasons is going hammer and tongs at Mayawati, castigating her as the enemy of the Dalits The Dalits oppressed so far in their hearts acknowledge her as their only saviour and no propaganda will severe their ties with her In spite of her expenditure on cars , security, furnishing of her personal residence, innumerable and expensive shoes and fetish fo costly bags, the police officers wiping her shoes, she rides the popular wave of the incumbent C.M. in all her glory Will these tactics of political assassination dethrone her from the pedestal.? Only time will tell Considering her humble origin and rise to power and fame, she has definitely made a dent in the political scene, much to the dismay and disconfiture of her veteran political rivals in the field This is one wasteful expenditure, which could have raised the status of her Dalits in a more acceptable way,but she feels the other way Nelson lopes Chinchinim
