"She is spending Rs 1000 crore on establishing statues of elephants and herself. Can there be something more shameful than this in Indian politics," Union home minister P Chidambaram asked. "Of what use will be the statues in UP. The Rs 1000 crore could have helped wipe out poverty of thousands of people, provide basic amenities and education," he continued.

According to media reports, Indian Supreme Court has issued a show cause notice to the Uttar Pradesh government for using money meant for the state's development for installing statues and sought a reply on the matter within four weeks.
