WB government calls special assembly session ahead of Durga Puja to introduce MLA and Minister allowance increase bill

The West Bengal government has made an unprecedented move by scheduling a one-day special session of the state assembly shortly before Durga Puja. Inside sources reveal that the session aims to introduce a bill related to the implementation of increased allowances for Members of Legislative Assembly (MLAs) and ministers.

The decision to raise the salaries of ministers and MLAs has already been announced by Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee, but the bill's introduction is a necessary step for its execution. This special session is considered a puja gift to MLAs and ministers during Durga Puja, with the assembly session set to occur on Monday.

While the bill to enhance MLA allowances will be presented in the session, its implementation will depend on Governor Dr. C.V. Anand Bose's signature even after its introduction. The West Bengal government's decision to increase allowances for MLAs and ministers is expected to be formalized during this special assembly session.
