- A petition has been filed in the HC to stop the salary and allowances of the MLAs staying in the hotel.

- According to the petition, an MLA gets around 2.5 lakh rupees per month including salary and allowance, if he gets some expenses then he gets 3 lakh.
- Jadaun said, "MLAs are staying in the hotels having no connection with the public in their constituencies & are not discharging their duty as per their oath to discharge duty MLAs."
- "Further, no other responsible person is there to discharge duty in the absence of them, therefore, they should not be given any salary, allowance & other benefit or any kind of allowances," he added.
