Punjab Chief (CM) Minister Bhagwant Mann today announced that Former MLAs will now get pension for only one term, irrespective of the times they were elected.
CM said that the political leaders, including MLAs, seek votes from the people by saying that give them a chance to serve but several MLAs who won thrice, four times or five times and then after losing the elections or after not getting tickets for contesting the polls, get lakhs of rupees in pension per month. This puts a financial burden of crores of rupees on the exchequer. He declared a reduction will also be made in MLAs' family pensions as well. He further said that money saved from this will be spent on the welfare of the people of the state.
