Lucknow, April 03: In the midst of a raging row over over her government’s spending money for Dalit memorials, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati today said it would not be possible for the state administration to fund implementation of the Right to Education and asked the Centre to give money for the scheme.
She accused the Centre of overlooking pratical aspects of implementing the Right to Education Act by not arranging money for its implementation.
Mayawati alleged the Centre was not serious in implementing the Act. “This was the reason Centre did not look into practical aspects while implementing the Act and a nominal provision was made in the budget,” she said in a letter to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.
