Shimla, August 29: In view of the serious financial condition of the state, Chief Minister Thakur Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu has taken a big decision. He has announced that the Chief Minister, Minister, CPS, and Chairman will not take their salary and allowances for the next two months. That is, their allowances have been delayed for two months. The Chief Minister made this announcement in the Assembly and also urged all the MLAs to delay their salary and allowances on a voluntary basis.
He said that in view of the adverse financial situation of the state, I delay my salary and allowances for two months, including the members of my cabinet and Chief Parliamentary Secretaries.
The CM said that the financial condition of the state is not good. There are many reasons for this. The revenue deficit grant, which was Rs 8058 crore in the year 2023-24, has come down by Rs 1800 crore to Rs 6258 crore this year. The move is aimed at improving the economic condition of the state and to show solidarity with the public.
