KOTTAYAM: P C George MLA has come out in support of the salary challenge to be implemented by the government to overcome the financial crisis following the Corona lockdown.

Open inly declaring that he needed only Rs 30,000 salary till the crisis ended, George put forward his own version of Salary change. He shared his thoughts in video he posted on his Facebook page.

“ I shall give this month’s complete salary to the chief minister’s relief fund. In Kerala, even a monthly salary of Rs 30000 is more than enough for a government employee to live. When the State is going through such a crisis, the government employees salary should be cut to Rs 30000 per month.
But, the salary of health department, police, fire force and forest department should not be slashed. Salaries of others should be cut.

Don’t give more than Rs 30,000 to anyone. Pension should be reduced to Rs 25,000, as well” he said.
