How current this text is

Text as published by India Code for the Government of Uttar Pradesh, with amendments up to U.P. Act No. 6 of 2017.

Chapter VI (The Nyaya Panchayat), sections 42 to 94-A, is printed only as a heading with the official footnote "Chapter VI comprising sections 42 to 94-A Omitted by sec. 16 of U.P. Act No. 6 of 2017.", so those sections have no pages here.

The marginal headings printed beside each section in this edition are shown as the section headings; sections 37, 37-A, 95-A and 109 carry no marginal heading in this copy.

Marginal references to other enactments (for example "U.P. Act No. I of 1951") printed beside the text are not reproduced.

All sums due to the Gram Sabha, whether on account of any tax or any other account, shall be recoverable by the Gram Panchayat, and for the purpose of the such recovery, it shall be competent for the Gram Panchayat to take any measure or institute any processing which it would have been open to the Gram Sabha to take on institute, if the Uttar Pradesh Panchayat Laws (Amendment) Act, 1994 had not come into force.
