Hello Mouthshutians
Directly coming to the point - can one imagine the actual record or life history of all the members of Parliament in our country? This all information is collected from the govt records and flowing on the internet since a long time, I hope many of you must have got a mail with this information but I would like to throw light on this important issue thru MS coz we all very well know the name and fame of MS and it is the best place to post important information to share with all the spontaneous, responsible, active, attentive, caring, serious members over here at MS.
Just go through the following facts & realities and think.
Our Parliament has around 545 MPs with the following statistics:
29 have been accused of spouse abuse.
7 have been arrested for fraud.
19 have more than three criminal cases pending against them.
117 have been charged and are being investigated for Murder, Rape, Assault, Extortion and Robbery.
71 cannot get credit or loans due to bad credit histories.
21 are current defendants on various lawsuits.
84 have been involved in offenses and have paid fines.
It is the 545 members of the Lower House of Parliament of India that works for us. The same group cranks out hundreds upon hundred of Laws design to keep the rest of us in line…...
At least, we’ll spread the word around using this mighty medium called Internet or email. We can create at least some awareness with this small step.
And now some more to add to this review...
Can you imagine how much the govt has to spend on its MPs on their salary, allowances, facilities, the figure is just beyond our expectation, here is a rough calculation of the toal expense the govt has to do to provide them such facilities:
Here is the the salary & govt. concessions, allowances & facilities for one MP.
Monthly Salary of MP: 12, 000
Expense for Constitution per month: 10, 000
Office expenditure per month: 14, 000
Traveling concession (Rs. 8 per km): 48, 000 (eg. For a visit from kerala to Delhi & return: 6000 km)
Daily DA TA during parliament meets: 500
Charge for 1st class (A/C) in train: Free (For any number of times) (All over India)
Charge for Business Class in flights: Free for 40 trips / year (With wife or P.A.)
Rent for MP hostel at Delhi: Free
Electricity costs at home: Free up to 50, 000 units
Local phone call charge: Free up to 1, 70, 000 calls.
TOTAL expense (approx) for a MP per year: 32, 00, 000
TOTAL expense (approx) for 5 years: 1, 60, 00, 000
For 545 MPs, the expense for 5 years is around: 8, 72, 00, 00, 000 (nearly 872 cores)
And they are elected by THE PEOPLE OF INDIA, by the largest democratic process in the world, not intruded into the parliament on their own or by any qualification. This is how all our tax money is been swallowed and price hike on our regular commodities...
Now you think of the great democracy we have...
