Congress MPs Accused of MPLADS Fund Misuse
Three Congress MPs from Rajasthan are accused of not using their MPLADS funds properly.
These funds are supposed to be used for development in their own areas, but they sent about Rs 1.20 crore to Kaithal in Haryana instead.
A minister said this was done to please their party leaders and not to help their own people.
The minister also said that many projects in their own areas are not finished, while projects in Kaithal were completed.
He asked for more transparency in how these funds are used.
