This matter relates to panchayat elections in the State of Uttarakhand.

Admittedly the period within which the panchayat elections were to be over in the State of Uttarakhand, as stipulated in Article 243E of the Constitution of India, is already over and the elections have to be held as early as possible.

A schedule of the panchayat elections in the State of Uttarakhand, said to have been agreed upon by the State Election Commission and the State Government of Uttarakhand, has been annexed to the affidavit filed on behalf of respondent nos. 3 and 4 in SLP (C)No. 6805 of 2014. In the said schedule, the elections are proposed in three phases but the districts in the three phases have not been mentioned.

After consultation between the State Government and the State Election Commission, a fresh chart of the schedule mentioned in the aforesaid proposed schedule of three-tier panchayat elections, 2014, will be filed in the court on Friday indicating therein clearly the districts in which the polling is proposed in the three phases.

List these matters on Friday, the 28th of March, 2014.
