Big relief for artists and litterateurs
The Council of Ministers has taken a big relief decision for economically weak artists and litterateurs in the state in the field of literature and art. In compliance with the announcement made in the assembly budget session, now the monthly financial assistance (pension) given to the artists has been increased from Rs 2000 to Rs 5000 per month.
