MPLADS: the money every MP must account for

Each Member of Parliament gets ₹5 crore a year under the Members of Parliament Local Area Development Scheme to recommend works in their constituency. The scheme is administered by the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI) under the MPLADS Guidelines (2023 revision), but the money is actually spent by the district authority on works the MP recommends — with 15 percent of funds earmarked for Scheduled Caste areas and 7.5 percent for Scheduled Tribe areas. From 2025-26 the fund flow has been reworked onto the central-sector procedure, with MoSPI's e-SAKSHI portal tracking the works online.

What that means for you: the record of your MP's fund use sits with the district authority and MoSPI, and both are public authorities. The questions that surface ghost projects are simple — the complete list of works recommended with amounts, works sanctioned and completed, the unspent balance, and the interest earned on it. Filing an RTI on MPLADS funds routinely finds works marked complete that do not exist on the ground.

The 3 RTI templates per MP

  1. To Sansad Secretariat — attendance, questions asked, supplementaries asked, committee meeting attendance
  2. To MPLADS implementing agency — funds released, works completed, works pending, beneficiary details
  3. To Election Commission of India — Form 26 affidavit (assets, liabilities, education) for the latest election

The Form 26 affidavit is public at nomination time, and comparing it with what an MP discloses after five years is the sharpest accountability tool a citizen holds. For state legislators, MLALADS works the same way through state schemes and the district administration.

Data is pulled from:

Every MP has a permalink at `/tools/mp-mla-tracker.html?house=rs&mp=<slug>` or `?house=ls&mp=<slug>`. Sharing brings the user directly to that MP's card with everything expanded.

Questions, not just attendance

An MP's questions are the sharpest record of legislative work: each Question Hour item is drafted, admitted and answered by a ministry in writing, and the answered questions are public on the Sansad portals. Comparing an MP's questions with the constituency's real problems — and with the MPLADS works recommended the same year — is how a voter tells activity from presence.

Why parliamentary scrutiny matters

Your MP votes on every law that touches your life. Your MLA controls the state laws that govern your land, education, police. RTI is the only legally guaranteed way to track them.

  • Filing an RTI on MPLADS funds routinely surfaces ghost projects.
  • Filing an RTI on MP attendance + comparing with public statements catches no-show MPs.
  • Filing an RTI on MP-recommended works finds where your tax money goes.

Frequently asked questions

Does MPLADS money belong to the MP?

No. It is government money the MP may recommend works from; the district authority sanctions and executes. That distinction is why RTIs to the district authority — not the MP's office — return the actual fund record.
