https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=283807 The 2007 amendment to the Uttar Pradesh Kshettra Panchayat and Zila Panchayat Act was intended to align the State panchayat law with Part IX of the Constitution and abolish the office of Up-Pramukh. Section 7(3) protected only those already elected so that they could continue in that office until the end of their term; it did not preserve any earlier right to act as Pramukh when that office became vacant. The non-obstante clause was given a restricted construction consistent with the amended scheme, so it could not nullify sections 9(2) and 9A or revive deleted rights. The District Magistrate therefore had authority to make a temporary arrangement. en-us Tue, 14 Dec 2010 00:00:00 +0530 Mon, 14 Oct 2019 12:51:27 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=283807 The 2007 amendment to the Uttar Pradesh Kshettra Panchayat and Zila Panchayat Act was intended to align the State panchayat law with Part IX of the Constitution and abolish the office of Up-Pramukh.
