[amp_mcq option1=”Class X pass” option2=”Class VIII pass” option3=”Class XII pass” option4=”None of these” correct=”option1″]<\/p>\n
The correct answer is: A. Class X pass<\/strong><\/p>\n The minimum qualification needed to contest in Panchayat elections by women of Scheduled Castes in Haryana is Class X pass. This is as per the Haryana Panchayati Raj (Amendment) Act, 2015, which amended the Haryana Panchayati Raj Act, 1994. The amendment was made to increase the minimum qualification for contesting Panchayat elections from Class VIII pass to Class X pass.<\/p>\n The amendment was made in order to improve the quality of representation in Panchayats. It was felt that by increasing the minimum qualification, only those who were better educated would be able to contest elections. This would lead to better governance at the Panchayat level.<\/p>\n The amendment has been welcomed by many, who believe that it will lead to a more educated and empowered Panchayat Raj system in Haryana. However, some have also raised concerns that it may disenfranchise some people, particularly those from rural areas who may not have had the opportunity to complete Class X.<\/p>\n Overall, the amendment is seen as a positive step towards improving the quality of representation in Panchayats in Haryana. It remains to be seen how effective it will be in achieving this goal.<\/p>\n Here is a brief explanation of each option:<\/p>\n [amp_mcq option1=”Class X pass” option2=”Class VIII pass” option3=”Class XII pass” option4=”None of these” correct=”option1″]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[980],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-80145","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-haryana-gk-mcq","no-featured-image-padding"],"yoast_head":"\n\n
