i thank everyone who had replied to my earlier query on whether an MLA can attend a Pqanchayat meeting uninvited. But , i wanted more onformation. what is the legal basis which permits him to attend the meetings of a Panchayat within his constituency, even though he happens NOT TO BE MEMBER of the said Panchayat. Can the other elected Members of the Panchayat object to his attendance in the meetings of the Panchayat? Do they have any legal authority to take action or propose action against the MLA? i shall be grateful if the legal position is given

His presence can be objected but the said Panchayat has got no right to take any action against such MLA as he had done no illegal act intervening in the proceeding of the Panchayat as stated in your quarry.
