Life @LAMP
Meghnad Sahasrabhojanee
It all started in June 2011.
I had taken a big risk joining the LAMP Fellowship. Ours is only the second cohort of Legislative Assistants and I was apprehensive about it. Now, I can say that I took the right decision. I am glad I am a Legislative Assistant to a Member of Parliament because this Fellowship has taught me so many things that any other initiative would never have. A Member of Parliament has to concern himself with everything that goes on in the country. He has to keep himself updated to take better decisions. Here is where we LAMP Fellows come in. PRS Legislative Research has trained me to research on any topic under the sun and keep my MP updated.

The LAMP Fellowship is a unique initiative for bright young people to have a high-impact engagement with the policy-making process at the national level. LAMP Fellows are selected to provide quality research support to Members of Parliament (MPs) to help them perform their legislative and oversight functions effectively.
The LAMP Fellowship places one legislative assistant to work with one MP for a period of 11 months. The year-long programme exposes Fellows to the working of Parliament and the legislative process. The Fellowship encourages the best and the brightest young individuals to get involved in public service.
The Legislative Assistants to Members of Parliament (LAMP) Fellowship 2011-12 comprises 46 young people from across 21 states in India. They come from diverse academic backgrounds including liberal arts, law, commerce, engineering and the sciences.
