The village council dissolution notice has been officially announced. The Elections and Boundaries Commission issued the order ahead of the June 2025 elections.
By law, councils must be dissolved at least seven days before a general election. This rule falls under Section 10 (1) of the Village Councils Act, Chapter 88, Revised Edition 2020.
Therefore, councils listed in the official schedule will dissolve on June 14 and June 21, 2025. Elections follow on June 22 and June 29.
Once dissolved, all council members must vacate their positions. However, the chairperson, secretary, and treasurer will continue basic duties. They will handle responsibilities, manage council assets, and keep operations running until a new council takes over.
Additionally, all property owned or used by the council will remain under their control during this period.
The Elections and Boundaries Commission shared this notice in the official Gazette. It also aired on national radio to reach the public.
The village council dissolution notice marks the official start of the transition. It ensures that communities prepare for new leadership.
Residents should follow updates and participate in the elections. A smooth handover depends on informed voters and proper procedure.
This step shows the Commission’s ongoing commitment to democracy. With clear timelines and legal structure, the process moves forward without delay.
