Salve defends Mayawati Govt on expenditure on parks, statues
1/20/2010

Senior counsel Harish Salve defended Mayawati Government before the
Supreme Court justifying the expenditure of public money on the
construction of Ambedkar park, other memorials and statues of dalit
leaders in Lucknow.

Mr Slave submitted before a bench comprising Justices Harjit Singh
Bedi and A K Patnaik that the Supreme Court should not interfere in
policy matter which had approval of the state Legislature.

He was addressing the court during the hearing of a PIL alleging that
UP Government has earmarked about Rs 2,600 crore for the construction
of parks, memorials and statues of dalit leaders in Lucknow and Noida.

The apex court has already banned all construction in Lucknow and
Noida and on the last date of hearing of the case had refused to lift
the stay.

Arguments will continue.
