Railway budget 2011 fails to impress
Uttarakhand and U.P.
With the railway budget 2011 being
criticized strongly by non-UPA state
governments.
Railways Minister Mamata
Banjerjee is being accused of being partial,
and directing all the attention towards her
home state, West Bengal.

MANY HAD predicted the rail budget 2011 to beWest Bengal centric due to assembly polls in West
Bengal. But while catering to her home state andconsiderations of national politics, the budget didnot address the long pending demands from thehilly state of Uttarakhand - that too when several
proposals and appeals were made to the railwayminister, Mamata Banerjee, by various politicaland social organisations.
