MCD officials living like lords, while COVID-19 workers don't get pay, says High Court
The Hindu
The Delhi High Court on Friday said it intends to stop all non-essential, discretionary expenses of the three municipal corporations in New Delhi, including the perks of councillors and senior officers "living like lords", so that salaries and pensions of COVID-19 front line workers — doctors, nurses and sanitation staff — can be paid.
The High Court directed the civic bodies to give details of expenses incurred on top officials saying that if anyone in these Corporations has to take a cut on their salaries, it has to be them, starting with the councillors.
