Mayawati doling money to keep her flock together: Congress (I)


Blaming Mayawati government for simply doling out money to the poor, Congress (I) has said that the poor rather need capacity building programs so that they can stand up on their own feet. Simply giving out money to poor does not help them.  Rather it creates dependency factor among the poor. Congress (I) approach for development of Bundelkhand is focused on capacity building programs instead of distributing money to the poor for vote bank politics, said Congress (I). Rahul Gandhi has been personally visiting drought hit Bundelkhand region and interacting with people there. A special package of Rs 7,000 corore was sanctioned by Centre for integrated development of the region. But due to corruption in Mayawati’s government benefits of development schemes have not reached the poor, said congress (I). For instance, while deep bore-wells have been dug there is no water in them. Similarly plantation was undertaken but plants did not survive, Congress (I) said further.
