"The people of Uttar Pradesh will give their reply to Mayawati in the coming assembly elections,” he said.
Mayawati Friday inaugurated a Rs.684 crore park dedicated to the Dalit cause in Delhi's sattelite town of Noida. With statues of 24 elephants, the symbol of her Bahujan Samaj Party, and of Dalit icons B.R.
