What can Lok Sabha MPs do

A Lok Sabha MP goes to the Lok Sabha

Thus he works for the Indian government and not the local administration
So apart from policy making at national level What can he do for local area

1. There is the local area development fund
Each MP will have the choice to suggest to the Head of the District works to the tune of Rs.1 crore per year, to be taken up in his/her constituency. Elected Members of Rajya Sabha representing the whole of the State as they do, may select works for implementation in one or more district(s) as they may choose. Nominated Members of the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha may also select works for implementation in one or more districts, anywhere in the country. The allocation per MP per year stands increased to Rs.2 crores from the year 1998-1999.
