The parliamentary archive
Matters he raised as a member for Gonda, and the written replies he has given for the Government as Minister of State.
By the numbers
PRS tracks attendance, debates, questions and private member's bills for MPs who are not ministers. Its MP Track has no data for the 12th and 14th Lok Sabhas. For the 18th it records none, because ministers do not sign the register, ask questions or introduce private member's bills.
| Lok Sabha | Attendance | Debates | Questions | Private member's bills |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 16th (2014–19) | 76% (national 80%) | 11 (67.1) | 126 (293) | 0 (2.3) |
| 17th (2019–24) | 70% (national 79%) | 7 (46.7) | 47 (210) | 0 (1.5) |
