The Andhra Pradesh Urban Areas (Development) Amendment Act, 1986

Language

General19865 sections

This Act serves as an administrative restructuring tool for Urban Development Authorities (UDAs) in Andhra Pradesh. It centralizes control by empowering the State Government to directly appoint key administrative officers, such as the Secretary, Town Planner, and Engineer, rather than leaving these appointments to local authorities. Furthermore, the Act mandates the immediate cessation of office for all existing non-official Chairmen and members, allowing the government to reconstitute these bodies. It also establishes a unified "Urban Development Authorities Service" and explicitly bars civil courts from interfering in these administrative changes, ensuring that the government’s restructuring decisions remain final and legally protected from litigation.
