Parliament Members are soon to get a 75 per cent hike in their Pensions. That is from Rs.20000 to Rs.35000/-.
There is also a proposal to give service weightage to these public servants. If they are MPs for period in excess of 5 years there will be additional monthly pension for them. This increase would be 2000 p.m.
There is no requirement of minimum service to be rendered.
Everyone must feel happy about this. Because the country will be happy and peaceful if peoples' representatives are kept happy and comfortable.

Now that the needs of parliamentarians is being met, we appeal to them to consider favourably the long pending issues of updation of pension etc., in financial sector
Employees get pensions on retirement. Do the politicians and parliamentarians retire on attaining certain age? It is the ungrateful people who force retirement on them? Even then they do not retire. Defeated parliament members can still hope for gubernatorial postings if they belong to ruling party. Whoever said Politics is a thankless job?
