Assembly passes resolution to split UP

By The Assam Tribune

LUCKNOW, Nov 21 � Chief Minister Mayawati today pushed through the resolution to split Uttar Pradesh into four parts amid stiff opposition in just a 10-minute sitting of the Assembly which adjourned sine die immediately after passing the controversial proposal by voice vote, reports PTI.

Afer securing the Assembly approval, a belligerent BSP supremo rejected the charge that her move was a political gimmick in an election-bound state and said it was taken out of �compulsion� since the Centre was not taking any initiative for easier governance of the country�s most populous state.

The special session of the Assembly which began today was meant to be a two-day affair but it was adjourned sine-die by Speaker Rajbhar amid pandemonium in 10 minutes.
