House Nod For Hiking Salary Of MLAs To ₹90k/Mth, Still Among Lowest In Country

New Delhi: Seven years after the Aam Aadmi Party government first proposed to increase the salaries of its legislators and ministers, Delhi Assembly finally passed a bill on Monday proposing a revision of the monthly remuneration of MLAs from the existing Rs 54,000 to Rs 90,000 per month.

The salaries and perks of the MLAs were last revised in 2011 under the Sheila Dikshitled Congress government.

The bills proposing the increase in the salaries of the ministers, speaker and deputy speaker, chief whip and leader of the Opposition from the current Rs 70,000 per month to Rs 1.7 lakh were also passed by Delhi Assembly on Monday.

Party sources said that despite the hike and after including perks and facilities, the Delhi legislators’ remuneration was still among the lowest in the country. In comparison, the MLAs of Goa get Rs 2.24 lakh, Madhya Pradesh Rs 1.10 lakh, and Karnataka Rs 1.07 lakh.
