💨 Abstract

The Supreme Court has directed the Manipur High Court to decide whether elected gram panchayat members, whose tenure ended, are entitled to continue in their posts following the appointment of an administrative committee or administrator. This is based on a question under Section 22 of the Manipur Panchayati Raj Act of 1994. The decision comes after the Manipur government stated it couldn't hold panchayat elections due to violence.
