The representatives elected by the people’s votes go to the assemblies with the determination to serve the country and the nation, where legislations are made to solve the people’s problems.
But at a meeting of the National and Provincial Assemblies of the country, the members of the Assembly incur huge expenses on their protocol and other accessories through TADA.
How much money does the nation spend on a meeting of the National Assembly? The recent budget session of the National Assembly lasted for seven days.
It is also worth mentioning that on October 5, 2023, PLDAT released the five-year report of the National Assembly, according to which the average cost of one day of the National Assembly is 6.65 million and the average price of one hour of the meeting is 2.42 million. It was Rs.
Even taking into account this report of the last five years, if the expenses of the meetings held in these recent seven days are estimated, the expenditure becomes at least more than 46.5 crore rupees.
It will be well understood by the people that in these meetings more politics than the budget were discussed with the government and opposition benches, but this time, very ugly conversations were also heard.
According to the Puldat report, during the last five years, the National Assembly spent 25 million rupees on one MNA.
This money is not spent on these members to sit there and talk about their political party but their job is to think and act for the welfare of the people.
A quorum was identified 105 times in the National Assembly during five years, and 72 meetings were postponed due to non-fulfillment of the quorum.
