The One MLA-One Pension Ordinance was previously passed by the CM Bhagwant Mann-led government. It was submitted to the governor after receiving cabinet approval. But Governor BL Purohit gave it back. The government was asked to send it and get it approved by the assembly. According to the government, this will save 19.53 crores every year. After the implementation of this bill, no matter how many times a leader becomes an MLA, he will get the same term pension.

The Agnipath army recruitment scheme was started by the center. In which the youth will be recruited in 17 and a half years and will retire in 23 years. CM Bhagwant Mann said that this is not proper. What will the youngsters do next? They will not be able to use the term "ex-serviceman," nor will they be able to use the canteen. At the same time, Leader of Opposition Partap Singh Bajwa had also raised the issue that soldiers cannot be recruited on contract in the country, facing the threat of China and Pakistan.
