Disqualification of village president

Sir/Madam,

Below are the offences performed by a panchayat President. What are the legal options to prosecute him?

  1. He constructed a road to his private lands in another village. the road was sanctioned for his village under district panchayat funds. The road work was constructed in his wife's name. she is a approved contractor.
  2.  A IAY scheme house is alloted for his wife, though he already have a house. According to IAY rules, the village panchayat shall recommend the list of beneficiaries.
  3. He recently bought some land under his wife's name. obviously he has no visible source of income except corruption

Advanced Thanks

You get the documentary evidences of all his corrupt practices quoted i your post through RTI Act, after obtaining the concrete information, you may plan to initiate appropriate legal action against him through DVAC or any other mode.

It is an offence under PC Act and State Vigilance Bureau is empowered to take action directly against the couple.
