Lucknow, July 13: The Samajwadi Party on Monday here said that even if the Finance Commission agrees to help the Uttar Pradesh government by releasing funds to undertake various developmental activities, the Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati would again use it in installing statues.
Speaking to reporters here, state SP president Akhilesh Yadav said, “The Bahujan Samaj Party government in the state is not utilising money meant for development activities.
Even if the Finance Commission team, which will be on a two-day visit to the state releases money, it would again be diverted in installing statues of Mayawati, which SP did not want.”
Demanding an account of utilisation of money released by Central agencies, Yadav said that Mayawati government should first tell people, where all the Centre funds meant for development had gone.
