Ravi Yashwant Bhoir vs The Collector, District Raigad & Ors

The Supreme Court upheld the disqualification of the appellant under Section 55B of the Maharashtra Municipal Councils, Nagar Panchayats and Industrial Townships Act, 1965, affirming the High Court's decision. The Court found that the appellant's conduct, including failure to oppose unauthorized construction and violation of procedural requirements for municipal meetings, constituted unbecoming behavior for a municipal council president. The Court held that such actions warranted disqualification for six years from the date of the order, reinforcing the accountability of elected officials under municipal law.
