Soon, former Presidents and Prime Ministers may not get government bungalows. In his note submitted to the court on Thursday, amicus Gopal Subramanium said that not only former CMs, but even former Presidents and Prime Ministers should not be allotted government bungalows. "It is submitted that once an office-holder (President, PM, CM, etc) demits office, he or she ceases to be an occupant of that public office and is, therefore, shorn of all its adornments. "Public property is not to be frittered away to private citizens, notwithstanding the high offices they may have previously occupied. No public property shall be allotted by the government as memorials to commemorate any personalities who are deemed to be eminent.
