I don't know where we are heading, how can an MLA .. specially in Indian subcontinent can be so poor that he gets counted in BPL.. He is from Odisha and his name is Srinath Soren.
See :
The information was obtained through an RTI application. Soren, a first-term MLA, was BPL according to a 1997 survey. Soren's name features in the ward-2 BPL list (card number 282925).

"Soren is listed BPL but he has not been given a card. The civil supplies department gives cards to us to distribute. In case of the MLA, we have not given the card," said Udala National Advisory Council executive officer Santosh Kumar Nial.

Before becoming an MLA, Soren was a zila parishad member in Udala block and a panchayat samiti member from Bodsingaria gram panchayat. The names of Soren's wife Mania Soren and two daughters, Sasmita Soren and Sanjukta Soren, are under the same card number. Civil supplies officer Ranjan Seth said they have nothing to do with the BPL list.
