Telangana passed the Telangana Employees Accountability and Monitoring of Parental Support Bill, 2026, to ensure financial support for elderly parents.
The Bill makes it legally compulsory for government, private employees, and public representatives to support their parents.
If neglected, up to 15% salary or ₹10,000 (whichever is lower) can be deducted and given to parents.
It expands the Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007, by including more categories, like private employees.
