The Uttarakhand Panchayati Raj (Amendment) Act, 2025

Infrastructure202516 sections

This law amends the Panchayati Raj Act to change how local village councils operate in Uttarakhand. It modifies rules for Panchayat members, specifically disqualifying those with more than two children born after July 2019, while allowing exceptions for multiple births. It also establishes new reservation quotas for Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, and Backward Classes in Panchayat leadership and general seats, ensuring these groups are represented proportionally to their population. The law caps total reservations at 50 percent and mandates that at least half of all reserved positions must go to women. A dedicated commission will help determine the exact population figures for these reservations.
