USHA BHARTI vs STATE OF U.P. .

The Supreme Court addressed the legality of a Motion of No Confidence against the Adhyaksh of the Zila Panchayat under Section 28 of the U.P. Kshettra Panchayat & Zila Panchayat Act, 1961. The Court held that the motion must be signed by at least half of the elected members, and the appellant's challenge was based on the alleged lack of valid signatures. The Court dismissed the appeal, affirming the High Court's decision to reject the review petition, thereby upholding the procedural validity of the no-confidence motion.
