The value of an MLA’s vote varies from state to state, mainly to reflect the population of each state.

To arrive at this value, the total population of the state (1971 census) is divided by 1,000 and the number of MLAs in the state

By this calculation, the value of one MLA’s vote in Delhi is 58, in Uttar Pradesh it is 208 and in Sikkim it is just 7.

Similarly the total value of all MLA votes in Delhi is 4,060, Uttar Pradesh is 83,824 and Sikkim is 224. The total value of all MLA votes is 5,49,495.
