The Odisha Panchayat Samiti (Cessation of Office of the Chairman of Saharapada Panchayat Samiti) Act, 1982

Infrastructure19824 sections

This state legislation specifically ended the tenure of the incumbent Chairman of the Saharapada Panchayat Samiti, who had been holding office since May 20, 1977. It officially declared that the Chairman would cease to hold office from a date specified by the government, overriding general local council laws. To ensure continuous local governance and prevent administrative disruption, the law temporarily assigned the Chairman's powers and responsibilities to the local Subdivisional Officer until a newly elected Chairman took office. It also formally repealed a prior executive ordinance of the same name while keeping all previous actions taken under it legally valid.
