RTI Activist Anil Galgali expressed his views that, apart from the salaries, these officials enjoy perks like government accommodation, vehicles etc. The government should monitor and conduct evaluation of the performance of such officials every 3 months to ensure that proper output of work is taken from those who have been appointed as the money being paid to them goes from the government exchequer.
