Lucknow: With Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections scheduled to be held next year, Chief Minister and BSP supremo Mayawati is expected to launch a number of development schemes for the poor on her 55th birthday on January 15.

"The Chief Minister will inaugurate and launch a host of schemes and development projects on her birthday. Besides, different government departments have also geared up to launch new schemes for the people on that day," a party official told.

Mayawati, who is popular for her extravagant birthday celebrations, is likely to announce free houses to beneficiaries of the Mukhyamantri Mahamaya Garib Arthik Madad Yojna, which was launched on her birthday last year.

The houses will be constructed in the third phase of the Kanshiram Garib Awas Yojna, state housing department sources said.

The department has already completed the ground work including district-wise survey to identify the possible beneficiaries, they said.

Under the Mahamaya Garib Arthik Madad Yojna announced by Mayawati last year, about 31 lakh urban poor are getting financial assistance of Rs 300 per month, sources said.

The CM is also expected to gift mobile medical units to people living in the remote areas of Banda, Chitrakoot, Hamirpur, Mahoba, Jalaun, Jhansi, Lalitpur, Sonbhadra, Ballia, Mirzapur, Chandauli, Ghazipur, Kushinagar, Deoria and Mau.

"The mobile medical units service will be launched in remote areas of 15 districts where health facilities are almost negligible, like naxal affected areas, and the scheme will be funded under National Rural Health Mission covering 132 blocks in these districts," the sources said.

Mayawati is also likely to launch the second phase of the Software Technology Park in Lucknow, besides a project for renovation of Hazratganj, the city's 200-year-old market.

The ambitious project launched by the chairman of state advisory council Satish Chandra Mishra in September last year includes complete renovation of the area including conservation of old buildings.

On the occasion of the Chief Minister's birthday, Lucknow Development Authority is all set to launch half a dozen new housing schemes in the city, sources said.

"The authority will start bookings for more than 2,000 flats in its different housing schemes on January 15," a senior official said.

Among new projects to be inaugurated by Mayawati are an auditorium constructed by Rajkiya Nirman Nigam at Ram Manohar Lohia National University (RMLNLU), which is proposed to be named after Bhim Rao Ambedkar, he said.

"The auditorium, spread over an area of around 1,200 square metres, will have a seating capacity of 3,100, including two halls having a capacity of 2,800 people and another with 300 seats," the official said.
