    • The Indian Express Tags : nation, up Posted: Wednesday, Oct 15, 2008 at 0403 hrs

    A few days ago, Narendra Modi, another chief minister with national ambitions, released an “open letter” to his counterpart in Kolkata, Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee, and to Bhattacharjee’s self-appointed Nano-nemesis Mamata Banerjee. Modi’s letter lectured the former on Bengal’s work ethic, and the latter on how Gujarat’s opposition behaves. This might be good local politics, but again it mocks India’s diverse federal structure, and is unbecoming — especially from a winner to a loser. Yet that is not as bad as Mayawati’s naked use of the state’s discretion against political opponents.

    Uttar Pradesh, and the country, deserve better.

    One-UP or Maya's UP ?By: D. K. Gupta | 16-Oct-2008 Reply | Forward The current moves of the UP government shows how insecure the government is.It is not only the issue of the recent rail coach factory in Rae Bareli but the developement of whole UP also.Ever since this government has come into the rule there is no developement in many other district barring the capital city.Forget about the developement,general elections are round the corner,BSP like SP is also trying to woo the Muslims. But on what basis ,only making promises does not baing fruit.Its all Maya's Maya.
    One-UPBy: Sree Kumar | 15-Oct-2008 Reply | Forward Media and secularists has already divided and destroyed India. What is the problem if Mayawati gives the empress in the same coin congress used to transact. Please donot shed crocodile tears.
    RAMNAT GOENKA WILL BE CRYING IN HIS HEAVELY ABODEBy: DEEPAK | 15-Oct-2008 Reply | Forward I ALWAYS THOUGHT INDIAN EXPRESS STANDS APART FROM THE REST OF THE PRINT MEDIA IN INDIA,BUT NO MORE THE SAYING "MONEY CAN BUY ANYTHINGH" IS TRUE.Recently divided into INDIAN EXPRESS (NORTH INDIA) and NEW INDIAN EXPRESS. SOUTH INDIA). The Indian Express is controlled
    Clash of two backdoor PMsBy: Bhagat | 15-Oct-2008 Reply | Forward Its a truly ONE-UP. Development, Growth, secularism, sacrifice, karmaBhoomi, Jail bharo etc all are facades to hod on. The bottomline is Mayawati wants to show who is in charge whether it is central project "Railway coach factory" or state subject "Law and order" to the most powerful person in India i.e.Madam Sonia. A tussle between sacrificial PM and wanting PM
    Sonia, Maya; ModiBy: rammohan | 15-Oct-2008 Reply | Forward Sonia want to start all development project on the 11th hour. After stone laying things will wait for may be 50 years. She may even find stones laid by her mother in law earlier. So there is no harm in politics of Sonia against politics of Maya. She is willing to go to jail provided it is a 5 star facility. Bringing Modi in this article was with bad intentions only anyway
