Bare Act

The Local Government In Delhi (Disqualification For Membership)(Small Family) Act, 1996

This Act regulates the eligibility of individuals to hold office in local self-government bodies within the National Capital Territory of Delhi, specifically focusing on the small family norm. It applies to members of Panchayats, Municipalities, and other local authorities who are elected or nominated. The legislation ensures that only those adhering to the small family policy can serve in these positions, thereby enforcing population control measures at the grassroots level. It also provides the Delhi government with the authority to issue orders to resolve any practical issues that might arise during the implementation of these disqualification rules.
