As many as 298 of 542 Lok Sabha members have not spent a single rupee of the annual Rs 5 crore that is set aside for constituency development

A year after they took office, 298 of 542 members of the 16th Lok Sabha – India’s lower house of Parliament – have not spent a rupee from the Rs 5 crore that is set aside annually for them to develop their constituencies, according to data made available to IndiaSpend.

Most ministers of the government figure in the list of members of parliament (MPs) who have not yet utilised their MP Local Area Development Scheme (MPLADS) funds, as the money made available to them is called, reveals an analysis of the data (until May 15, 2015) from the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation.

Among those who have thus far ignored their MPLADS funds: Home Minister Rajnath Singh (Lucknow), Chemicals and Fertilisers Minister Ananth Kumar (Bangalore South), Law Minister D V Sadananda Gowda (Bangalore North), Union Minister for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises Kalraj Mishra (Deoria) and Water Resources Minister Uma Bharati (Jhansi).
