Imphal, July 31 2022:
All Manipur VDF Welfare Association has called for their demand to increase their monthly honorarium to be introduced tomorrow at the ongoing second session of the 12th Manipur Legislative Assembly.
The statement urged all ministers and MLAs to discuss and fix a suitable honorarium for VDFs keeping in view the rise in prices and subsequently pass a bill to this effect.
Meanwhile, in regards to the State Cabinet's decision to award Rs 500 yearly increment to VDFs beginning from January 2023, Imphal West District VDF Welfare Association has appealed for this increment to be calculated from the time a VDF personnel joined service and urged for the matter to be brought up at the ongoing session of State Assembly.
