Mayawati is an ICON , at least that is what she seems to be told and beleives...
How will one other wise ,dare to indulge in a self importance parade of sorts where she spend a whopping 1000 crore in a damn disregard to even basic rules of public behavior, installing and unveilling a host of parks( where the rows of Elephants-her parties election symbol and her statues are the key features) ostensibly for Kanshiram who founded her party and the Great Dr Ambedkar ,on whose shoulders all this jokers still piggy ride ....
Mayawati is a symbol ......and for UP (which sure is in shock for having elected her) and India at large have got this realisation that for us the need of the hour is statues... more and more of them... Manmohan, Sonia, Advani all of them should make their own statues and unveil it shamelessly and declare that ICONS should be said that they are icons when they are alive... No matter how many people still go to bed- hungry and crying , no matter the diseases, the unemployement, no matter the basic things like roads, water and right to education...
Mayawati is a synonym .....for the rotten politician that India seems to be bearing in its weak shoulders for decades now... and how we still arent tired of this creeps and the filth and smell that they emit... It is a disgrace that the world is discussing an elected leader of an Indian state and her statue fetish and other self obsessed traits of megalomania...
Mayawati is a gesture ....for us to act...... the people of India to throw the baggage and burden of caste and creed which for the political class (Class ? EH>>>> ) has been all along a tool for exploitation...
Has the life of the Dalits (bahujan as her party calls them ) improved in her rule?
Will they all get glory by this statue spree?
Will they get ecstasy when they stand half clad and half fed , seeing one of those statues, hoping to vote for Behenji again?
Will they get heaven if such bigots get to power again to build more statues and parks, have more birthday bashes and collect gifts, adore themselves in diamond ornaments and pretend like mideaval kings and queens...?
Mayawati is a Shame, an absolute one for the lack of even traits of humility that makes a leader, Lack of simple behaviour like the one Manmohan singh carries, Lack of mass appeal like LK Advani or for that matter the understanding of the issues of the common man that she represents...
The great Dr Ambedkar is made to stand next to her... Will some courts order at least the removal of them?
Paradox !!!
Let us keep praying, still....
