India is a country with lot of statues of political leaders in each nook and corner of the place.
And AndhraPradesh leads with most number of statues followed by Tamilnadu.
Some leaders go to the extent of opening their own statues: might be they are afraid that after their period, people would forget them.
Another major problem is the hardships to the general public by way of traffic diversion and jam when the followers or new leaders remember these statues by garlanding on birth and death days.
Today I had experienced this problem in Chennai when the Chief Minister happened to pay homage to an old stalwart. The statues is situated in an important and arterial road junction.
The entire city traffic, that too peak and office hour, came to a halt for about one hour.
This happened in the hot summer.
So called leaders never mind the inconvenience to the public who voted them to power.
