Mayawati vs Congress war escalates in Lucknow
Despite being warned against it, the Congress has decided that it will stage its "nyaya" (justice) march in Lucknow. There's considerable tension in the city. Chief Minister Mayawati is meeting senior police and administration officials. The Congress says it has the right to protest against the breakdown of law and order in the state. In the last two weeks, a glut of attacks against young women - some of them Dalits - have fuelled the Opposition's allegations that the state, despite being headed by a woman, cannot protect young girls.
