A National wide affair happening.............

Bahujan Samaj Party chief Mayawati is celebrating her 53rd birthday in a very low profile due the December sensational murder of PWD engineer Manoj Kumar Gupta in Auraiya allegedly by BSP MLA Shekhar Tiwari, the MLA allegedly lynched the engineer after he refused to donate Rs 50 lakh for the Chief Minister's birthday which created havoc in the state & also with the opposition leaders.Still she has cut a cake of 53 kgs (as per age) ordered from the top bakery in state.One by one each officer close to her will feed the cake piece and a similar event will be held in Delhi at a five star hotel to mark the celebration, the Mega event in Delhi is planned as a well calculated move to send a political message to her supporters belonging to the scheduled castes.

Mayawati, today will also announce the Shiksha Sahayata scheme to provide financial assistance to poor girls to pursue secondary education.Under the scheme, approved by the state cabinet yesterday, a largesse of Rs 25,000 would be offered to over 5 lakh girl students in class 11 and 12.

The 1956 BSP leader's birthday is also celebrated as " Aarthik Sahayog Diwas (financial support day) with BSP party members and workers making heavy donations to the party.

In all Lucknow its been flooded with posters and hoardings, which is illegal by the Corporation of Lucknow but being for Chief Minister, all are kept their lips locked in silence.
