Lucknow: Rejecting claims of Uttar Pradesh chief minister Mayawati
that fund raising for her birthday has been put off, Samajwadi Party

officials and demanded a CBI probe into it.
"The departmental heads and the district chiefs like the DMs and chief
development officers were asked to cough up funds on the birthday and
a CBI inquiry can bring the facts before the people", leader of
opposition in the state assembly Shivpal Singh Yadav told news persons
here.
"These funds are being deposited with the senior ministers Naseemuddin
Siddiqui and Babu Singh Kushwaha," Yadav alleged.
On the schemes worth over Rs7,000 crores announced by the chief
minister today, Yadav alleged that almost 50% of it would be siphoned
off.

the issue of misuse of public funds and scams in the coming Assembly
session.
The party also submitted a memorandum to governor BL Joshi on "massive
rigging" in the just-concluded Legislative Council elections, Yadav

January 19 in which party president Mulayam Singh Yadav would also
take part.
