Re: Salary for legislators.

["BDP India" <bdp.india@mailexcite.com>]

I propose a salary of Rs. 100,000 per month to an MP and Rs 75,000 per month for
an MLA. High Government officials should be paid in the range of Rs. 50,000 to Rs
75,000 per month. Do we agree on such numbers for the manifesto purposes. I think
I had proposed the reasons for such numbers earlier. I think most of the MPs do get
a residence in Delhi as well in their constituency.

Thanks,

Utkarsh
