There is a dire need to increase the minimum stipend that Article Assistants make during their Articleship period. At least an amount that takes care of their basic expenses should be fixed by ICAI. What are your thoughts?

I am not getting even a single penny as stipend and working very hard 12:00 to 7:00 in office . Whenever I ask for the stipend they change the topic. I also had to travel from my village to the city which cost me 200 Rs. daily

I think organizations must also take responsibility to pay some minimum wage to their employees. More than earning a minimum you are having to spend
