Mayawati again demand to split Uttar Pradesh

mayawatiLucknow: BSP supremo and former CM of Uttar Pradesh, Mayawati on Wednesday has demanded for the split of Uttar Pradesh into four parts. Mayawati had given this statement after UPA Govt had nodded from the creation of Telangana state.

Mayawati said to media, “BSP has always been in favour of smaller states for which it had sent a proposal duly passed by the state Assembly on November 23, 2011, when it was leading the government, for splitting Uttar Pradesh into four states in order to ensure better governance and administration.”

Mayawati said when her party was in power, she had created new divisions, zones, districts and tehsils so that better administration could be provided to the people of the state, which is the most populous state in the country.

She also said, “It is unfortunate that the central government kept it pending since then, but with Telangana becoming a reality, BSP demands that on the principle of one language-one state, the Centre, besides reorganizing larger states, should also complete the process of division of Uttar Pradesh into four states, besides (formation of) Gorkhakland and Vidarbha.”

She said she had proposed splitting Uttar Pradesh into Purvanchal, Bundelkhand, Awadh Pradesh and Pashchimanchal.
