SAMBA, July 6: The Sarpanches of five blocks including Ghagwal, Rajpura, Samba, Sumb and Nud led by Sarpanch Darshan Singh opposed amendments in the Panchayati Raj Act (PRA) by the PDP-BJP coalition.
Talking to reporters here today Darshan Singh and Kumar Singh both Sarpanches said that the Panchayat representations in rural areas are strongly against the move and demanded roll back of the amendment in the Act.
He said the BJP –PDP coalition is trying to weaken the Panchayati Raj system of the State, snatching the rights of the people to elect their sarpanches. The political parties would easily win over the elected Panches and get their people elected as Sarpanches.
