The state election commission has already vetted its final draft for Modi's nod.

Once operational, the law will enable the electorate to recall elected representatives across all local self-government bodies � municipal corporations, municipalities and panchayats � if he or she fails to deliver or is involved in any serious misconduct.

Once the Bill goes through the Assembly, District Collectors would have the power to remove any elected local body representative and order a repoll, if one-third of the electorate lodges a complaint, and the Collector finds substance in it. Elected representatives, however, can serve an initial two years of their five-year term, before voters could exercise the right to recall.

"The draft for this and some other recommendations are ready. We will soon hand it over to the government for its consideration," Gujarat Election Commissioner K C Kapoor told The Indian Express, adding that he "strongly believes" the government would accept it since 'right to recall' is already being implemented in local bodies in BJP-ruled Chhattisgarh.

The SEC has also suggested to legislate for barring anyone above the age of 65 from contesting any local body poll.

If you take any developed country with a 2 party system you will find two groups, rightly called left wing and right wing. In India congress is a great bearer of left wing ideas but there is confusion when it comes to right wing flag bearers. Liberty over security, Smaller Govts, Lower taxes, Privacy rights, etc are always protected by right wingers. Unfortunately they are the ones that lose vision easily and get carried away by nationalist and religious fundamentalism giving people the impression that liberal is better

Kamal annai monna thed lo deeniki against ga matladanu but i support this bill even though it is undemocratic because India is in a transition phase and the pros outweigh the cons to a great extent.
