I was a teacher in Orai of Jalaun district in for 6 years and know how much worse to travel by bus to either Jhansi or Kanpur.Roads are the worst in India.People mostly depend on train and the railway station at Orai is mostly out of power in night time. Y dont Sonia and other patriotic politician visit these Bundhelkhand area at least now...
I wonder how much more wealth do these leaders want to accumulate. Do they not get bored? The last fifty years have been wasted. Lets not waste the next fifty also! I think we the people must join hands (with NGO's for example), to create awarness and educate people. Only through literacy is there any hope. These politicians keep the people uneducated so that they can stay in power.
The question arises in our mind--Are we living in an independent,Democratic Country? In uttar pradesh--people divided themselves in respect of Caste,Crime,Communalism,and Corruption. If this is the situation---We are not proceeding towards 21st century,we are moving backwards-- 18th century.Let the good sense be aroused in the minds of the people of that state---to cope up with the Global world.
I'm amazed, why can't every MP try to build his own constituency...at least these guys r giving back to their village...Why did vajpayee not do anything for lucknow, likewise why did vinod khanna not do any thing for gurdaspur and dharmender for his constituency...its easy to criticize and difficult to perform

Reforming your constituency on the expense of state fuds is never fair.And for your information the funds are alloted according to size and population.

This author is so true. One Yadav supporting another! Rajesh Yadav, the point is not whether Saifai or whatever god foresaken place it is, is developed or not, the question, how big a burden the states of UP and Bihar have become to this nation. Even with in India, I can vouch that very few people want biharis and UPites as their neighbours! They are generally bad behaved and Maa-behen kii gaali seems to come out of their mouths with out any rhyme or reason!
Moreover, these two states single handedly bog down our population growth control.
like mulayam, sonia and her family also have their pet consttuency in amethi. these selfish politicians do lot of favour to their own constituencies, so that they can win easily fron there anytime. do u remember the drama of sonia resigning from parliament to seek reelection in the wake of the office of profit issue. these politicians talk of the good of the whole country!

And muslims only divided, looted & plundered it before & now also
The article mentioned above, is true, in UP and also in many parts of the country. Thats why we still remain as developing country even after over 50 years of our independence!
In Bihar, UP, and in certain pockets of Haryana, goondas rule the territory. They terrorise the voters to vote for a particular candidate, and the police do not take any action on such goondas!. It is a 'sangam' of criminals, corrupts, casteists, politicians. In Tamil Nadu, the parties try to get votes by offering freebies like free television sets, bicycles, land, etc. Honest, and law abiding citizens have no voice in this country. Even if they go to Police Stations or Courts, 99% chances are that they do not get any justice, instead they are put behind bars and tortured by false cases. I think people will not forget easily, when new cars were taken from show rooms in broad daylight, to ferry the guests, during the marriage of the daughter of the then CM, and the Police stoodby as mute spectators. To manage election related expenses, kidnapping rich peoples' children and demanding ransom is a common phenomena in UP, Bihar, and also in some other parts of the country!.
All these will come to an end, only when the election commission ensures with an iron hand that criminals are not allowed to participate in the election process (I wonder how this would be possible, when a large portion of people ruling this country belong to this category!), and the people vote and elect their representatives based on pure merit and integrity of the candidates. I wonder whether we will live to see such a day in this country!
