Currently, a Supreme Court judge gets Rs 1.5 lakh a month in hand.

Government also provides rent-free houses to judges.

CJI TS Thakur had recently written to government on pay hike for judges.

NEW DELHI: Supreme Court and high court judges may soon get a fatter pay packet as the

Rahul Gandhi may reveal corruption charges against PM at


Jaunpur rally
Binay Singh | TNN | Dec 15, 2016, 07.15 PM IST
VARANASI: After hurling corruption charges against Prime Minister Narendra Modi on
Wednesday, the Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi may make the charges public at his
scheduled rally in Jaunpur on December 19.
"Rahul ji ke Jaunpur rally mein doodh ka doodh aur pani ka pani ho jayega" (The Jaunpur rally
of Rahul Gandhi will sift the chaff from the grain), AICC secretary and UP in-charge Rana
Goswami told TOI. Goswami arrived here on Thursday to take stock of the preparations of the
rally.
Rahul is scheduled to visit Jaunpur to address a rally on December 19. Earlier, he had also held a

road show in Jaunpur in September as part of his 'Kisan Yatra and Khat Sabha' from Deoria to
Delhi.
Rahul may use the Jaunpur rally as an 'appropriate forum' to reveal the charges he leveled against
the PM, for which preparations are on to make his rally a grand success. Goswami held a
meeting of party office bearers of Varanasi, Ghazipur, Mirzapur, Bhadohi, Chandauli and
Azamgarh districts at the Englishia Line office.
The Jaunpur rally of Rahul is supposed to be a significant one particularly after his attack on the
PM over demonetization, alleging that he has 'information on corruption by the PM' who is
'terrified' and therefore not allowing him to speak in Parliament. "If Rahul Gandhi is leveling
charges against the PM, he would definitely have some vital information in this regard. Let
Jaunpur rally happen, everything will be clear," said Goswami, while adding that Rahul Gandhi
is being prevented from speaking in the Lok Sabha.
Meanwhile, the local Congressmen here in the PM's constituency continued their 12-day 'Sawal
Satyagrah' (question campaign) over demonetization on the fifth consecutive day on Friday by
holding dharna at Chittaranjan Park, Dashashwamedh. The dharna was attended by Congress
MLA Ajay Rai, UPCC vice president Digvijay Singh, Vijay Shankar Pandey, Shailendra Singh
and others.
