Assam staffers stare at 20% pay cut if rewed sans divorce or first wife alive
In a notable move, the Assam government has announced a twenty percent salary reduction for employees who enter into second marriages without obtaining a legal divorce. This deduction will be redirected to the first wifes account following her formal request. The government is also looking to extend similar protective measures to women in the private sector. Previously, a ten percent salary cut was enforced for those who neglect their parents.
