It seems funny that certain politicians treat public property as their private property. Recently the chief minister of Uttar Pradesh decided to demolish a part of a famous stadium to turn it into a parking place for a private school. The school in question is one which is private in nature and could have managed a parking lot for itself but since a number of ministers have their daughters studying in it, a prestigious institution was made a scape goat to control the traffic problems. And the sad thing is that there is traffic problem outside every school when it gets over but a special treatment was meted out to just one particular institution for known reasons. Destroying public property in order to control traffic is not a proper solution. Instead proper steps should have been taken to manage the traffic chaos during school hours. But nobody wants to go the difficult way. And so another building becomes victim of the whims of politicians.
