SC upholds Gujarat law allowing multiple councillors in a ward
The Hindu
The Supreme Court on Wednesday upheld a Gujarat municipal law which allows more than one councillor to represent a ward, saying more representation actually increases the empowerment of the poor in a constituency.
A Bench of Justices Ashok Bhushan and R. Subhash Reddy upheld the constitutional validity of certain provisions of the Gujarat Provincial Municipal Corporation Act, 1949 which increased the number of councillors in a ward to four.
