JHADC to go to poll with new constituencies as Governor assented JHADC Delimitation Bill
Though it is still unclear when the election to Khasi Hills Autonomous District Council (KHADC) and Jaintia Hills Autonomous District Council (JHADC) will exactly be held but it is however certain and confirmed that twenty-nine constituencies of the JHADC will go to poll next year with all new extent of constituencies.
The new extent of constituencies was defined in the JHAD (Constitution of District Council) (Amendment) Bill 2024, which was passed by the House in a special session held on August 8 this year after the Delimitation Committee submitted their report to the Executive Committee of JHADC in the first week of August this year.
The JHAD (Constitution of District Council) (Amendment) Bill 2024 received the assent of Meghalaya Governor C H Vijayashankar on September 2nd this year and the bill is now known as the JHAD (Constitution of District Council) (Amendment) Rules 2024 and substituted JHAD (Constitution of District Council) (Amendment) Rules 2013.
The newly approved Rules redefined five constituencies as defined in the previous Rules into new ones and they are namely Nangbah -Mihmyntdu, Mukhla-Ummulong, Nartiang-Wahiajer, Moodymmai-Nongkhroh and Saphai Sahsniang while Jowai Central Constituency was deleted as the newly approved Rules.
According to JHADC Chief Executive Member Thombor Shiwat, the Delimitation of Constituencies was required “as there are discrepancies in the size and strength of voters of the existing District Council Constituencies and to provide equal representation, so far as practicable, to equal segments of a population, amendment of the Principal Rules has become imperative.”
