Legislators are supposed to be " Servants of the citizens "
They are - but with a difference
In case of our domestic servants or employees in our offices , we get a chance to settle their salaries, through " bargaining / negotiations "
And deduct salary for absenteeism
And sack them for non-performance
In case of our MLAs ( and our MPs as well ) , they too settle their salaries through " Collective Bargaining "
Not with the Speaker , but collectively among themselves !
You may even want to call it , " Colluding / Cooperating Bargaining " !
The only element of " Competition " is with the salaries of MLAs of other States !
Look at the basic Monthly salaries ( excluding perks / benefits / allowances ) of our MLAs :
* Assam...........................................Rs 60,000
* Jharkhand / Haryana / HP............... Rs 30,000
* Punjab..........................................Rs 25,000
* Karnataka..................................... Rs 20,000
* Rajasthan..................................... Rs 15,000
* Delhi........................................... Rs 12,000
* Uttarakhand................................. Rs 11,500
* Chhatisgarh..................................Rs 10,000
* Kerala..........................................Rs 1000
Now , MLAs of Delhi discovered their relative ranking in this " Pecking Order " and decided ( unanimously , of course ! ) that they must raise their salary to Rs 50,000 , in order to " Jump the Queue " and occupy position # 2
As to what will happen next , your guess is as good as mine !
Irrespective of their political affiliations , all MLAs belong to ,
" A Mutual Admiration Society " !
The only way we can put a stop to this " Self Service Circus " is by :
* Writing a " Job Description " for our MLAs and MPs
* Introducing " Objective Setting and Targets "
* Followed by " Quarterly Online Performance Appraisals " by voters
* Enacting an electoral reform called " Right to Recall "
