ADR took into account the affidavits submitted by the MLA candidates prior to elections. ADR took up the survey of 4092 MLAs from 28 states and 3 union territories. It looked into the political background and criminal cases.

It could not consider 24 MLAs as the papers submitted were not scanned properly. Also, 7 seats are vacant.
