https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=293873 Section 310A(1) of the Gujarat Panchayats Act empowered dissolution and reconstitution of a District or Taluka Panchayat on alteration of territorial limits, but Section 310A(10) excluded cases where the change resulted from alteration of municipal limits or conversion of a municipal borough into a Gram or Nagar. The Supreme Court held that the deeming rule in the Bombay Provincial Municipal Corporations Act, which treated references to a municipal borough as references to the converted city, operated because the Panchayats Act showed no clear contrary intention. The omission of the word "city" did not narrow the provision, so the Panchayats Act continued to apply after conversion and the State Government lacked power to dissolve the Panchayat on those facts. en-us Tue, 07 Dec 1971 00:00:00 +0530 Sat, 06 Mar 2021 12:45:56 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=293873 Section 310A(1) of the Gujarat Panchayats Act empowered dissolution and reconstitution of a District or Taluka Panchayat on alteration of territorial limits, but Section 310A(10) excluded cases where the change resulted from alteration of municipal limits or conversion of a municipal borough into a Gram or Nagar.
