Sarpanch Association Sets Ultimatum for Panchayat Rights, Plans Statewide Protest

Haryana Sarpanch Association Demands Panchayat Empowerment by July 22

In a decisive move, the Haryana Sarpanch Association has set an ultimatum for the government to grant panchayat rights by July 22. The association, representing village leaders across the state, has been advocating for the implementation of the Panchayati Act for the past 17 months. Despite their persistent efforts, the government has yet to take action.

Statewide Boycott of Government Programs

During a state-level meeting held at the Circuit House on the Delhi Bypass in Rohtak, all district and block heads participated under the leadership of association president Ranveer Singh. The meeting concluded with a unanimous decision to boycott all government programs until their demands are met. Singh expressed the association’s frustration, stating that the “Save Villages – Save Rural Areas” movement has been ongoing without any substantial response from the government.

Strategic Planning for Upcoming Elections

The association has also announced a crucial meeting on July 25 to strategize their opposition to the government in the upcoming state assembly elections. The plan will include mobilizing support and organizing protests against the current administration.

The Fight for Panchayat Empowerment

The Haryana Sarpanch Association’s primary demand is the implementation of the Panchayati Act, which they believe is essential for the empowerment of local governance. This act would provide necessary powers and autonomy to panchayats, enabling them to effectively manage and develop their respective villages.

Frustration and Determination

Ranveer Singh highlighted the association’s determination to continue their fight, emphasizing the importance of panchayat rights for the development and well-being of rural areas. The association’s resolve to boycott government programs is a significant step, demonstrating their commitment to achieving their goals.

Next Steps

With the ultimatum set and plans for further action in place, the Haryana Sarpanch Association is poised for a significant confrontation with the government. The upcoming meeting on July 25 will be crucial in shaping the association’s strategy and actions moving forward.
