Congress (I) General Secretary Rahul Gandhi blamed Mayawati for failing to ensure welfare of dalits and also said that she was interested only in dalit votes, not for dalit welfare. In 2007 she manipulated votes of dalits and poor to grab power in the state but later did not do anything for their welfare, said the Congress leader. Rahul Gandhi informed that such instances came to light during routine audit of NRHM funds sent by Congress (I)-led UPA government at the Center for improving health care services for the poor. It was found that large numbers of ambulances had been purchased but they remain unused in depot, informed Rahul Gandhi. On inquiry it was known that the state government had no funds to run and maintain those vehicles, added the Congress General Secretary. This has been her attitude towards the welfare of dalits, said Rahul Gandhi while addressing a massive Congress rally in Uttar Pradesh. Rahul Gandhi added that while she spent Rs 7 crores for building a single park she did not spare few lakhs of rupees for buying petrol and maintenance of ambulances for the welfare of poor dalits. Reminding the people that Mayawati was not interested in their welfare, Rahul Gandhi urged them to give a chance to Congress to form a pro-development government. Rahul Gandhi also claimed that a government of the poor by Congress (I) would ensure the welfare of the dalits and poor.
