Indian Parliament: Dynamics & Details

 
M.K. Singh (Author)
Synopsis

On examining the attendance records of the 11th and 12 session of the fourteeth Lok Sabha, it was more than 75 per cent members who were below the median point of 16 or more days of attendance. As can be seen most of the MPs attended between 11 and 15 days in total. Not only that, the number of MPs whose attendance ranged from 0-5 days increased in the 12th session. The partici-pation of the members in the parliamentary debates shows their involvement in the whole functioning of the system. However it was distressing to find that the participation of young members was lower in comparison to other age groups.

What is more worrisome is that while the members of sittings are declining even during those fewer sittings precious legislative time is lost due to adjournments and pandemonium in both the houses. Cost of running the Parliament has increased substantially from Rs. 100 per minute (in 1951) to Rs. 18,430 per minute (in 2004-05) and to Rs. 26,000 per minute recently.
