2. Why we need to monitor our Elected Representatives (ER’s) 2  Steady decline in the quality of governance in the last three decades  Growing frustration amongst citizens  Elections – the only time when citizens get a ‘real’ say  Looking at the growing deficiency in governance and the increasing needs of the citizens We believe there is a need for a continuous dialogue with the ER’s and have developed a report card on the Performance of the ER’s which can form the basis of such a Dialogue

3. The Constitution as a Basis for monitoring of Elected Representatives  ERs derive their powers for functioning through the Constitution  They are mandated to Attend Sessions, Raise people’s Issues, Debate, Participate in Discussions and Pass legislations.  The Constitution defines their powers and rules of functioning, hence only the Constitution can provide the parameters for their monitoring. 3
