Headnote:(1) Panchayat Adhiniyam, 1981 (M.P.)-Ss. 11, 15, 22, 23 and 27 (as amended in 1988)-provisions under-providing reservation for women and persons of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes-not violative of Arts. 14 and 15 (1) of the Constitution being founded on reasonable classification. AIR 1988 Pat. 75 dissented from. AIR 1958 Raj. 41 referred to. [Para 6

       (2) Constitution of India-Art. 15 (3)-special provisions for women under-not limited to protective measures like maternity homes or a facility which a woman alone can avail of. AIR 1953 Bom. 311 relied on. [Para 8

       (3) Constitution of India-Art. 15 (3)-word ‘and‘ occurring between ‘women‘ and ‘children‘ under-has to be read as ‘or‘-special provisions can be made for either of the two. AIR 1954 SC 321 followed. [Para 9

        (4) Panchayat Adhiniyam, 1981 (M.P.)-S. 15 (2) and (3) (as amended in 1988)d`reservation of seats for women, Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes for the posts of Sarpancha-does not violate Art. 15 (1) of the Constitutiond`right to be elected is not fundamental right-said reservation does not affect rest of the society. AIR 1963 SC 649, AIR 1988 SC 959, AIR 1982 SC 983 and AIR 1976 SC 490 explained. [Para 11

       (5) Panchayat Adhiniyam, 1981 (M.P.)-S.15 (2) and (3) (as amended in 1988)-provisions under-neither unreasonable nor excessive-they are not violative of Arts. 14 or 15 (1) of the Constitution. [Para 11

       Section 15 (2) of the Act gives blanket power to the State Government to reserve any number of seats of Sarpancha. The guide lines provided by section 15 (2) are quite vague and there is no precise guidance as how the power is to be exercised either in the Act or the rules. No provision of the Act was brought to our notice to show that the Legistature had retained control over the delegate. AIR 1967 SC 1895 followed. [Para 13
