Introduction

Since a large number of complaints were being received from members about-non-implementation of various items of work under the Members of Parliament Local Area Development (MPLAD) Scheme, it was felt that there should be some effective monitoring mechanism so that proper and quick implementation of projects under MPLAD Scheme could be achieved. With this end in view, a ten-member Committee was constituted in Rajya Sabha on 5 September 1998. The Deputy Chairman of Rajya Sabha is the Chairman of this Committee.
