https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=461609 Articles 243R and 243S do not expressly or by necessary implication prohibit multi-member municipal wards, so State legislation enabling more than one councillor from a ward remains within legislative competence. The impugned Gujarat municipal provisions and ward committee rules were held consistent with the constitutional scheme because each councillor from a multi-member ward can participate in the ward committee framework, including chairperson selection. The reservation design under Part IXA was treated as advancing, not defeating, representation of women, Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes. The notification dated 04.12.2014 was also found unobjectionable because it related to ward delimitation and reservation, not the separate draft amendment process. en-us Wed, 24 Feb 2021 00:00:00 +0530 Wed, 16 Apr 2025 20:54:06 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=461609 Articles 243R and 243S do not expressly or by necessary implication prohibit multi-member municipal wards, so State legislation enabling more than one councillor from a ward remains within legislative competence.
