- The Tamil Nadu government has recently increased the rent paid to Ministers if they occupied private houses that are either owned by them or taken on a lease.
- The rent paid to them, under both these categories, has been increased from ₹70,000 a month to ₹1.5 lakh a month.
- This would apply for the Speaker, Deputy Speaker, the Leader of the Opposition and the Chief Government Whip too.
- The revision in rent has been made after a gap of eight years.
- The previous revision was in March 2016, when the then State government increased the rent payable to the Ministers from ₹20,000 a month to ₹70,000 a month.
- The house rent allowance would not be paid to them if they occupied a house provided by the State government.
