Why Dwarka district panchayat chief election has been postponed
December 23, 2015
Jamnagar
Election for the posts of president and vice president of Devbhumi Dwarka district panchayat was canceled yesterday by district collector and postponed for a day.
Congress has got 11 seats while BJP 9 and independents 2 in Devbhumi Dwarka district panchayat.
As 2 independents extended their support to BJP, both Congress and BJP are enjoying support of 11-11 members.
The Collector therefore took a decision in favor of draw through chits.
However BJP members pointed out that there were two nomination forms filed from Congress side a day earlier and therefore draw is not suitable in this situation.
The district collector took a decision to dissolve the meeting and postpone it for a day.
Congress leaders PH Jadeja and former MP Vikram Madam told media persons that none from Congress side would attend the meeting next day and may approach the Gujarat High Court.
