Judges are set for a hefty pay hikes if all goes well. Sixth Pay Commission seems to have opened the floodgates of pay rise in every sector. Thy are set to get pay hikes in proximity of around 300 percent.
It was only two days ago when the union government had decided to raise the salaries of President, Vice President and governor by around three hundred percent.Presdient Patil who used to get Rs 50000 as monthly salary will take away a monthly salary of Rs 150000.Central government employees’ much touted pay hike will pale in the eyes of the pay increment given to president, vice president and governors. Now judges across the board will also get hefty pay rise if Parliament approves the recommendations of the three member committee of Supreme Court of India that was constituted by the Chief Justice of India.If the recommendations of the committee are approved and set to look to be approved, Chef Justice of India’s monthly salary with go up from Rs 33,000 to Rs 1.10 lakh while that of other Supreme Court judges-judges and CJs of High Courts will increase to Rs 1 lakh from the present 30,000.
