Weak govt more likely to work for public welfare than strong govt: Mayawati

Mayawati claimed that on one hand, BJP government was slashing allocation for rural employment and on the other, it was not filling up nearly 700,000 vacant government posts

Giving a new twist to political discourse, Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) president and former Uttar Pradesh chief minister Mayawati on Saturday said thar a 'weak government' was more likely to work for public welfare than a 'strong government'.

Mayawati said although Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) was ruling both at the Centre and UP for quite some time, yet there had been no improvement in people’s lives so far.

Mayawati was presiding over a meeting of senior BSP functionaries of 9 divisions in eastern and central UP here, wherein she exhorted cadres to expand the party’s base among all sections of society.
