The Members of Parliament Local Area Development Scheme (MPLADS) allows MPs to recommend development work in their constituencies with an emphasis on creating durable community assets based on locally felt needs.
Option 1 states that MPs are responsible for sanctioning, executing, and completing works, which is incorrect. MPs can only recommend work but the execution and completion is the responsibility of the respective implementing agencies.
Option 2 is correct. Nominated MPs can recommend works anywhere in the country.
Option 3 is also correct. MPLADS is completely funded by the government of India.
Option 4 is the current annual entitlement for every MP under the scheme, which is Rs. 5 crores.
Therefore, the correct answer is 1.
