    "content": "Unfortunately, I was in the Parliament which equalised these funds among 290 constituencies. However, using natural justice, we cannot say that we are all equal as a country, constituencies or individuals. If we parade 290 Members of Parliament here, there are some who are tall, short, heavy and light. Why do we say that each constituency should get the same amount of money without looking at other factors in that particular constituency, like the terrain, climate, levels of education, how many schools are there and how many have been developed, population and so many other factors? If we find there is a small constituency which has 20, 30 or 40 schools and you equalise it with a constituency with almost 200 schools, that is unfair. If we have to share this money, we should use various indices like it was before. Whoever brought those changes did disservice to our communities and misled this House."
