The Goa, Daman and Diu Members of Legislative Assembly (Removal of Disqualification) Act, 1982

General19822 of 2 sections available

This Act removes certain legal barriers that would otherwise prevent individuals from becoming members of the Legislative Assembly in Goa, Daman, and Diu. Specifically, it states that holding specific government positions, such as being a chairman of a transport corporation, housing board, or a member of a university committee, does not automatically disqualify a person from serving as an MLA. By listing these offices in a schedule, the law ensures that experienced leaders in these sectors can participate in state politics without facing legal hurdles, provided they receive only compensatory allowances and not regular salaries.
