Entry 42 State List | Legislative Competence Grants Exclusive Power to States to Provide MLA Pensions : Rajasthan HC Upholds Constitutional Validity

The judgment reinforces state autonomy in determining emoluments for public representatives, setting a precedent for similar constitutional challenges.
