Answer 2

Answer:

In 1992, the 73rd and 74th amendments to the Constitution of India were passed to provide recognition to local self-governments in all states in India at the urban level (through municipalities) and rural level (through panchayats). Following this, several states introduced laws to implement these provisions. Andhra Pradesh passed the Andhra Pradesh Panchayat Raj Act in 1994. The Act provides for the constitution of various panchayati raj institutions in the state including gram panchayats, and mandal and zilla parishads. It further provides for the appointment of the AP Election Commission for Local Bodies to conduct elections to all such institutions in the state.

On April 10, 2020, the Andhra Pradesh Panchayat Raj (Second Amendment) Ordinance, 2020 was promulgated to amend the 1994 Act with respect to the appointment, qualifications, tenure and conditions of service of the State Election Commissioner in the State Election Commission. Subsequently, the government notified the vacancy of the office created by the cessation of tenure of the Election Commissioner, and appointed a successor Commissioner.[1],[2] The Ordinance and the notifications were challenged before the High Court of Andhra Pradesh.[3] The Court struck down the Ordinance on 29th May and restored the SEC to his office until the completion of his tenure.[4] The state government has filed a special leave petition before the Supreme Court against the decision.[5]
