Bare Act

The North East Frontier Agency Panchayat Raj (Regulation) Amendment Act, 1992

This Act amends the North-East Frontier Agency Panchayat Raj Regulation of 1967 to update the definition of a Gram Panchayat. It states that a Gram Panchayat is a group of people elected by secret ballot by village residents, as directed by the Deputy Commissioner. This change clarifies the process for electing local village councils, ensuring that representation is based on direct voting by the community. By defining the election method, the law helps establish a more transparent and democratic system for local governance in the North-East Frontier Agency.
