NaMo or NOT, increasing 543 to 816 is NOT welcome for the following reasons:-
URGENT: #MASSIVE #TAX #BURDEN INCOMING! AND NO ONE IS TALKING ABOUT IT!
The government is introducing the #Constituency #Delimitation #Bill in a special 3-day parliamentary session on April 15-17. Lok Sabha seats go from #543 to #816.
All State Assemblies also expand \~50%.
Making a permanent recurring salary for a new class of political parasites, billed to #YOU, every single year, forever!
The Constituency Delimitation Bill also expands *EVERY SINGLE STATE ASSEMBLY* by \~50% as well.
Right now India has 4,123 MLAs across all states and UTs. Add 50%. That’s roughly 2,000+ new MLAs. On top of the 273 new Lok Sabha MPs. On top of expanded Rajya Sabha implications. On top of new staff, new offices, new security, new bungalows, new pensions that will be paid out for the next 30-40 years.
#WHY #NO #NEWS?
There is not a single party that has a financial incentive to oppose this bill. The only people who lose are us. The taxpayers.
1 MP costs the exchequer: ₹4.29 crore/year (salary + allowances + perks + premium travel allowances for whole family)
New Lok Sabha MPs being added: 273
Annual cost of just new MPs: ₹1,171 crore/year
Over one 5-year term: \~₹5,855 crore
Full 816 MP Lok Sabha annual cost: \~₹3,500 crore/year
\+ State Assembly expansion (4000+ new MLAs): est. ₹5,000–8,000 crore/year
\+ New Parliament infra, staff, security scaling: ???
Conservative 5-year bill to taxpayer: ₹40,000–50,000 crore+
And this is just the #direct cost. Each MP also gets:
— ₹5 crore/year #MPLAD fund (now multiply by 816)
— #Rentfree bungalow in Delhi (market value: lakhs/month)
— #Free train + air travel for life, for self + family
— #Free medical for self + family
— #₹31,000/month pension after just ONE term
— Dedicated staff, security, vehicles
MPLAD alone: 816 × ₹5 crore = ₹4,080 crore per year. Just for “constituency development” — a fund with notoriously poor utilization tracking.
Not only that, to support the livelihood of our poor politicians, every single of them get lifetime pensions upon “serving” for just 5 years.
Now — what do YOU get for YOUR money?
46% of elected MPs have criminal cases. 93% are crorepatis!
So we are paying more, for more of the same people, doing even less work.
Most people filing ITR have no idea this is happening because no news channel is giving it primetime — because their owners have political interests too.
Quick personal reality check: If you’re in the 30% tax bracket, a meaningful chunk of what you paid in advance tax this March is going toward funding politicians who attend Parliament 55 days a year, pass laws in 7 minutes, and will now get 273 more colleagues doing the same. This is not left vs right. This is taxpayers vs a system that just voted itself a massive raise — with your money, without asking you.
*Stop thinking this is a BJP or Congress issue. It is not. It is a taxpayer vs. the ENTIRE political class issue.* The moment you make it partisan, you lose — because the other party you’re rooting for is equally silent on this.
Final thought:
You paid advance tax in March. You will file ITR in July. You will pay TDS every month. A chunk of that money is now earmarked — not for highways, not for hospitals, not for IITs — but to fund the salaries, bungalows, free flights, MPLAD funds, pensions, staff, and security of approximately 2,300+ new politicians who will collectively sit in session for about 20-55 days a year, pass laws in under an hour, and be largely absent the rest of the time.
They didn’t ask you. They don’t have to. And none of their opponents will stop them.
The least you can do is make others aware about it.
PLEASE Cross-post this everywhere. Facebook, WhatsApp groups, LinkedIn. The salaried class that pays the most tax is also the most politically disengaged. That disengagement is being exploited right now.
