Page 1 of 23
Expense on Vehicles Used: 3 MLAs have declared that they did not spend ANY amount on vehicles used during campaign. Expense on Campaign Materials and Erection of gates, arches etc.: A total of 3 MLAs have declared that they did not spend ANY amount on erections of gates, arches, cutouts, banners and Campaign materials, like handbills, posters, video, audio cassettes, loudspeakers. The National Election Watch demands that the ECI should specifically investigate the election expenses of candidates who have declared very little or no expenses on use of vehicles, campaign material, public meetings, campaign workers and print/electronic media to check the verity of these disclosures. Kolkata /Delhi, June 25th, 2011: Association for Democratic Reforms (ADR) and National Election Watch (NEW), a nationwide campaign comprising of more than 1200 NGOs and other citizen led organizations, have been working on electoral reforms, improving democracy and governance in India. West Bengal Election Watch (WBEW) has analyzed the abstract statement of expenses of 217 MLAs out of the 294 who have won the West Bengal 2011 Assembly Elections. National Election Watch (NEW) analyzed the abstracts of election expenses submitted by 217 1 MLAs. This report is based on the analysis of the information provided by the MLAs and submitted to ECI. The Election Commission released expense abstract statements of the winners, first and second runners up of each state in the Chief Electoral Officer (CEO)s website. Analysis of the declarations of the MLAs for West Bengal (where the election expense limit stipulated by the ECI is 16 lakhs) revealed that only 6 MLAs have utilized above 80% of the expense limit amount stipulated by the ECI i.e. 6 persons have utilized about 13 lacs in the elections. The party-wise average election expense for all MLAs in total is only about 7 lacs which is 44% of the total expense limit set for West Bengal. This is interesting to note in the light of the fact that almost all parties have been lobbying for an increase in the expense limit for election expenses. Analysis of the details of expenses according to various items like vehicles used, expenses on campaign materials, banners etc. reveal some interesting facts: 3 MLAs have declared that they did not spend any amount on Public meetings and processions, 163 MLAs have declared that they did not spend ANY amount on campaigning through electronic/print media, 26 MLAs have spent less than 10 thousand on the same; 53 MLAs have not spent any amount on campaign workers, 3 MLAs declared that they did not spend any amount on vehicle use and 3 MLAs have declared that they did not spend ANY amount on erections of gates, arches, cutouts, banners and Campaign materials, like handbills, posters, video, audio cassettes, loudspeakers. The National Election Watch demands that the ECI should specifically investigate the election expenses of candidates who have declared very little or no expenses on use of vehicles, campaign material, public meetings, campaign workers and print/electronic media to check the verity of these disclosures.
*Till 24June 2011, election expense details of only 217 MLAs were available on the CEO West Bengals website.
