Does the reduction in M.L.A.'s salary will really help?
Greetings to all my friends,
As states such as Gujarat, Uttar Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh cut salaries of their MLAs. We will dive deeper to take a look, what are its impacts, and how it can help or not.
Kerala's MLAs receive the lowest basic salary of Rs2,000. While Gujarat has the highest salary of Rs78,800.
Uttar Pradesh has cut down salaries to Rs.17,500.
MLAs get alowance for:-
Office
Constituency Expenses
Free Housing in Capital
Travelling
Daily Allowance for attending assembly
MLAs themselves determine their salaries by passing a legislative.
Former Finance Minister Arun Jaitley, tied MPs salaries to the Inflation Index, and mandated that salary will be revised every five years. Guj. and Maharashtra have tied MLAs salaries with that of Civil Servants.
Cutting salaries will have negligible benefits for the people.
Bihar is reducing 15% Saving 2.1 cr which is 0.001%
H.P is reducing 30% Saving 4.3 cr which is 0.009%
U.P. is reducing 30% Saving 17.4cr which is 0.003%
Thank You for giving your valuable time.
We will appreciate your suggestions.
