LG approves a 66% hike in the Delhi MLA's salary Anjali Bhatia New Delhi, June 30 The Delhi Lieutenant governor Vinai Kumar Saxena approved a bill for a 66.67 percent salary hike for Delhi lawmakers on Thursday. The Delhi government has called a two-day session of the Delhi assembly from Monday where a bill on the revision of legislators’ salaries and allowances will be tabled and passed paving the way for the salary hike pending for nearly seven years. Earlier in May, the Union ministry of home affairs (MHA), had cleared it, paving the way for the revision. If the bill is passed, lawmakers in Delhi will get Rs 90,000 a month, up from the existing Rs 54,000, an official in the Delhi assembly told the media. “The LG has recently approved a proposal for increasing the salary and allowances of MLAs from the existing Rs 54,000 per month to Rs 90,000 per month. Accordingly, a bill for the hike of salary and allowances is likely to be tabled in the upcoming assembly session and passed,” added the official. The Delhi government in December 2015 proposed Rs 2.10 lakh a month as salary and allowances for the MLAs, but the MHA did not agree with the proposal. On May 5 this year the then LG Anil Baijal’s office forwarded a letter to the department of law, justice and legislative affairs of the Delhi government from the MHA regarding the salary revision.
