High courts in Uttar Pradesh, Punjab, and Haryana are currently checking whether certain administrative appointments in local government bodies are legal.

北方邦、旁遮普邦和哈里亞納邦的高等法院目前正在檢查某些地方政府機構的行政任命是否合法。

In Uttar Pradesh, the Allahabad High Court is examining the appointment of former village heads as administrators after their terms ended. The court wants to know if these appointments are actually an illegal way to extend their time in power, which would interfere with the rights of the State Election Commission. Specifically, the court is questioning the validity of Section 12(3-A) of the Uttar Pradesh Panchayati Raj Act. Because similar rules were challenged in the past, the state government must now provide a legal explanation for these appointments and submit reports by August 4.

在北方邦，阿拉哈巴德高等法院正在審查前村長在任期結束後被任命為行政官的情況。法院想知道這些任命是否實際上是一種非法延長權力的手段，而這將干擾邦選舉委員會的權利。具體來說，法院質疑《北方邦村政法》(Uttar Pradesh Panchayati Raj Act) 第 12(3-A) 條的有效性。由於過去曾有類似規定遭到挑戰，邦政府現在必須為這些任命提供法律解釋，並在 8 月 4 日前提交報告。

Meanwhile, the Punjab and Haryana High Court is dealing with a challenge regarding the Finance and Contracts Committee (F&CC) of the Ludhiana Municipal Corporation. A councillor, Gaurav Bhatti, claims that the appointment of two other councillors—who are children of Aam Aadmi Party MLAs—broke the rules of the Punjab Municipal Corporation Act. Although the mayor had some authorization to make these choices, the petitioner argues that the correct legal process was not followed. Since the F&CC manages spending and contracts, the court has asked the municipal corporation for a formal response before the hearing on July 27.

與此同時，旁遮普邦和哈里亞納邦高等法院正在處理一起關於盧迪亞納市議會財務與合約委員會 (F&CC) 的挑戰。一名議員 Gaurav Bhatti 聲稱，另外兩名議員（為 Aam Aadmi Party 立法議員之子女）的任命違反了《旁遮普市議會法》。儘管市長擁有一定的任命權，但請願人主張並未遵循正確的法律程序。由於 F&CC 負責管理支出與合約，法院已要求市議會在 7 月 27 日聽證會前做出正式回應。

Both courts are now waiting for the governments to respond to decide if these local appointments followed the law and the constitution.

兩座法院目前都在等待政府回應，以決定這些地方任命是否符合法律與憲法。
