Hi Shiv, Thanks for asking and sorry for the lack of clarity here - what I meant is how each MP/MLA votes for bills/legislations introduced in assemblies. I fundamentally would like to understand how each politician behaves in office so I wonder if there are any datasets or archives on (i) which bill is introduced by which politician and (ii) how each politician reacts to bills (e.g. votes for or against bills).
