MP ministers, not govt, to pay income tax as Yadav changes 52-year-old rule

Chaired by the CM, the state cabinet unanimously approved changing the 1972 rule under which the state government paid the income tax of salaries and perquisites of the ministers.

"The state cabinet has decided that our ministers and not the government will pay the income tax. They (ministers) have decided that they will not take any financial help from the government in paying the tax. Under the 1972 rule, the tax expenses of the ministers and even the parliamentary secretaries were to be covered by the state government.
