Today, On 1st December, The Supreme Court said there should be no further impediment in holding the polls and refused to entertain the plea challenging Maharashtra’s local body delimitation. The Court made it clear that the election process must move ahead without any additional delays.
The Supreme Court has directed the Manipur High Court to resolve whether expired gram panchayat members can stay in office when an administrator is appointed. A three-month deadline was set for this decision amid concerns over ongoing violence preventing elections. The legality of these elected positions hinges on amendments to the Manipur Panchayati Raj Act.
