General19716 sections

This law sets out the rules for who can serve as a member of the Himachal Pradesh Legislative Assembly. It specifically prevents people from being disqualified from holding office simply because they hold certain government jobs, known as offices of profit. The Act lists specific positions, such as Minister, Speaker, or Village Revenue Officer, that do not disqualify an individual from being an MLA. By clarifying these rules, the legislation ensures that experienced public servants and leaders can continue to serve in the state legislature without fear of losing their seat due to their official roles.
