Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined the validity of a No Confidence Motion against Sarpanch Sushila Sitaram Kalel, hinging on the membership status of Sudhir Vilas Kalel in the Panchayat. The Court held that if Sudhir was entitled to vote under Sections 3 and 4 of the Maharashtra Temporary Extension of Period for Submitting Validity Certificate Act, 2023, the No Confidence Motion would be invalid. Conversely, if he was not entitled, the motion would stand. The Court ultimately ruled in favor of the appellants, nullifying the No Confidence Motion.
