Bureaucrats Ordered To Slice Out Lavish Spending On Trips

Bangalore: With India’s economy going down the drain, several bureaucrats have been ordered to downsize the expenses of their luxurious living. To tame the nation’s monetary deficiency, members of the Parliament ministry have now been restricted from spending on pricey travelling, reports Anant Vijay Kala and Prasanta Sahu for The Wall Street Journal.

The recent internal order issued from New Delhi directs all its ministries and departments to cut short unnecessary spending such as travelling in business class flights. Also, ministers have been asked not to conduct conferences in five-star hotels as that adds on to a grand amount. Expensive trips must be avoided as much as possible and lavish travelling to countries overseas should be slashed. The bureaucrats will have to manage the expense of their companions from now on, unlike earlier where they could get a tag-along for free.
