CHANDIGARH: Mired by a severe financial crisis, the Chandigarh municipal corporation (MC) has failed to timely pay salaries to its regular staff and is now waiting for an advance grant from the UT administration to avoid further delays.
The MC has a total of 9,748 employees, including 6,965 outsourced employees. While outsourced staff wages take the largest share of MC's monthly expenditure at ₹26 crore, ₹16 crore are allocated for regular staff. In routine, the salaries to regular employees are disbursed on 30th or 31st of every month, but this time, the salaries could not be released with the MC struggling to even pay the rest of its monthly liabilities.
