Ex-MLAs in Punjab to get pension for one term only

Chandigarh: Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann on Friday said former MLAs will now get pension for only one term, doing away with the practice of drawing the benefit for each term served by them.

“ExMLAs in Punjab, even if they have won twice, five times or ten times, they will now get pension for one term only,” said Mann in a video message while adding that several MPs are also getting pension for remaining MLAs earlier.
