A member elected from a general women's seat could not contest the reserved office for Scheduled Castes women merely by belonging to a Scheduled Caste. The scheme of rotation and reservation required the contesting member to come from the relevant reserved electoral category. On that basis, the respondent was ineligible, and the member elected from the Scheduled Castes women category was entitled to hold the office. en-us Mon, 18 Nov 1996 00:00:00 +0530 Thu, 23 Feb 2023 18:16:21 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=306772 Article 243T, read with the Haryana Municipal Act and Election Rules, was interpreted to mean that reservation of a municipal President's office operates by the specific category of the elected seat, not by caste or gender alone.
