Ministers Pay

Take a look at this scan from a paper, look at the amount wasted on these useless guys. I would say 30% of them might be worth it, but the rest are useless. They are there only for perks, status, money, power but NOT FOR THE COUNTRY.

We dish out, out of are hard earned pockets to give these guys luxurious lives. If they atleast showed they made a difference with what we pay for them, then it would be a less angered topic, but just think of the things we could do with what we are paying these guys.

Assume 1 USD is 100 Rupees

Total per month for the 104 minister – Rs. 96,781,640 …… USD 967,816 per month

Total per year for the 104 minister –967,816 x 12 = USD 11,613,744 per year

Now we take also into considerations their vehicles USD 35,000

35,000 * 104 = USD 3,640,000 for their vehicles that is one per minister

Now if seen then never just have ONE, they have a few plus security vehicles, so lets add another 50,000 for security vehicles, and for the wife and kids, it’ll be more but lets say 50,000

50,000 * 104 = USD 5,200,000 on other vehicles

So for now we’ll base the cost per year, they keep the vehicles for an year …

Pay for a year for all ministers = USD 11,613,744 per year

Pay for their vehicles (Montero, Land Cruiser, X5, Land Rover, Benz, BMW, etc) = USD 3,640,000

Pay for other vehicles (Wife, Son, Daughter, Son in Law, Brother, etc) = USD 5,200,000

Now lets take accommodation and so on.

We’ll assume they rent, without considering new properties, and we’ll put the rent at Rs. 150,000 per month

150,000 per month rent
50,000 Electricity, water, etc
30,000 phone bill
40,000 home staff

We’ll take their usual extremes, AC in the whole house, long calls international and local, these will be used by the entire family.

270,000 per month for accommodation and so on

For all 104 = 270,000 x 104 = Rs. 28,080,000 per month …. USD 280,800 per month

For all 104 per year = 280,800 x 12 = 3,369,600 per year

Should we stop at that ? Earlier there was an article on their fuel usage, lets include that (http://lankabuzz.blogsome.com/2006/08/07/tax-paid-vehicles-and-fuel/) also but for 104 ministers

lets assume the petrol is refilled every 3 days

for one montero, filled once costs 100x80=8000 rupees
so for the month, filled 10 times(30/3) costs 8000x10=80,000

so for the 104 vehicles for the month it comes to
80,000x104 = Rs 8,320,000 per month on fuel

so lets assume each of them have on average 4 vehicles, the kids need to show their friends they have a cool car, and it has loads of power, and the wife has to show her friends at hilton her husband has given her the best car, and so on.
so we’ll follow the same formula, let’s assume they all got monetros or a skylines, or a jags or bms
8,320,000x4= Rs 33,280,000 a month for all minister vehicles

33,280,000 / 104 = 320,000 per minister per month for fuel for whole family

now we need to include the convoy vehicles
let’s put an average of 3 vehicles, these we’ll put a diesel something

let’s assume 5000 for fuel per tank and it’s filled twice a week
5,000 x 10 = 50,000 per vehicle per month
then for all three vehicles 50,000 x 3 = 150,000 per convoy per minister
so the total per minster for all vehicles per month comes to
320,000 + 150,000 = 470,000 rupees
470,000 x 300 = Rs 48,880,000 on fuel per month

Per month on fuel for ministers = USD 488,800 per month

Per year on fuel for ministers 488,800 x 12 = 5,865,600 per year

NOW LETS ADD IT ALL UP

Pay for a year for all ministers = USD 11,613,744 per year

Pay for their vehicles (Montero, Land Cruiser, X5, Land Rover, Benz, BMW, etc) = USD 3,640,000

Pay for other vehicles (Wife, Son, Daughter, Son in Law, Brother, etc) = USD 5,200,000

Pay for accommodation for all 104 per year = 280,800 x 12 = 3,369,600 per year

Pay for fuel for all ministers vehicles = 488,800 x 12 = 5,865,600 per year

WHATS OUR TOTAL

11,613,744 + 3,640,000 + 5,200,000 + 3,369,600 + 5,865,600

……….. ======== USD 29,688,944

TOTAL = USD 29,688,944

TOTAL IN RUPEES = RS 2,968,894,400 PER YEAR ON MINISTERS REQUIREMENTS !!!!

CORRECT ???????
