In this connection, on Tuesday, a no-confidence motion was brought on the chief and deputy chief of Dumariya block as well as city block. According to the information, many Panchayat Committee members have united and submitted an application to the BDO to bring a confidence motion against the Block Chief and Deputy Chief of Gaya Nagar Block Chandauti.
Panchayat Samiti members have demanded setting time for the no-confidence motion through a written application to the BDO. Regarding this, a memorandum has been submitted to the BDO by more than dozens of Panchayat Samiti members under the leadership of former chief Suchita Ranjani. It has been said in the memorandum that all of us Panchayat Samiti members are dissatisfied with the actions of the block chief and deputy chief. The present Chief and Deputy Chief are not doing their work as per the rules, due to which we want to remove them from the post by bringing a no-confidence motion by the people. Among those who submitted the application of no-confidence motion, Block Chief cum Panchayat Committee Area No. 8 Suchita Ranjani, Pinky Devi of Panchayat Committee Area No. 13, Asha Devi, Khushboo Devi, Puni Devi, Shahzadi Khatoon and Manju Devi of Panchayat Committee Area No. 14 etc. Committee members were involved.
What is a no-confidence motion?
In parliamentary procedure, a no-confidence motion or a vote of confidence (alternatively a vote of no-confidence) or a censure motion is a parliamentary motion. It is traditionally put into the House by the opposition in the hope of removing or weakening a government. This process is adopted when two years of the tenure of the Zilla Parishad Chairman and Block Chief have passed. After the opposition submits the memorandum of no-confidence motion, the date for bringing the no-confidence motion is fixed by the District Magistrates cum District Election Officer. After that, both the parties present their respective points in the House. After that, councilors and Panchayat Samiti members in the block vote for and against the candidates for the no-confidence motion. During that time, the one in whose favor the number of votes is more than half, again occupies the chair.
