JAMMU, Mar 14: Elaborate arrangements have been put in place for Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati's "dream rally" at Lucknow tomorrow.
Over a million people are expected to attend the rally on Bahujan Samaj Party founder Kanshi Ram's birth anniversary. "At least a million people are to converge here for the rally, marking the BSP's silver jubilee (which was last year but not held due to the general elections) and aimed as a 'show of strength' for Mayawati," senior leader of state unit of BSP told Early times. A neatly laid out camp is already created for as many as 30,000 special guests at the Smriti Upwan, located just next to the rally venue - Ramabai Ambedkar Grounds. Those to be lodged here are important BSP functionaries arriving from across the country. They are also to be taken on a conducted tour of the city, primarily to be shown the new monuments erected by Mayawati for Kanshiram, Ambedkar and herself. Five caterers have been hired at Rs.1 crore each to ensure all meals for some 100,000 party workers, while separate arrangements are in place to provide food packets to the million participants expected for the rally.
