Petitions against the Mayawati government questioning the use of public funds for self-serving partisan ends are pending before the Allahabad High Court and the Supreme Court of India.

In India, we have the recent Supreme Court case where the construction of B R Ambedkar Park in Lucknow and other memorials of dalit icons by the Mayawati-led Uttar Pradesh government are under judicial review. The court is considering whether it is legally permissible for any government to incur colossal expenditure from the public exchequer to construct memorials. A Supreme Court bench observed on September 18, 2009: “Suppose today the legislature decides that 80% of the budgetary allocation should be spent on such works of memorials and statues, is it justifiable? The Cabinet and legislature have to act within the framework of the Constitution.” Further, it observed on October 7, 2009: “We are not concerned with politics here. One of the important questions in these petitions is how much money you (government) can spend for construction of memorials or statues. Can you (government) spend 50% of the budget for this?”
