If a Panchayat is dissolved, elections are to be held within __________ from the date of dissolution.
Answer: A
Elections must be held within 6 months.
Under Article 243E(3)(b) of the Constitution, an election to constitute a Panchayat must be completed before the expiry of a period of six months from the date of its dissolution. Article 243U lays down the same rule for municipalities.
A newly constituted Panchayat after a dissolution serves only the remainder of the original five-year term. The periods of 3 months, 5 months and 1 year do not appear in the Constitution's rule.
