Nine social welfare boards in Madhya Pradesh established before the 2023 elections received Rs 8.34 crore in sanctioned funds but spent two years without disbursing money or helping beneficiaries, while chairpersons enjoyed ministerial perks. A recent Assembly disclosure revealed these boards were dissolved after two years of inactivity despite officials receiving government vehicles and allowances.
