The apex court bench headed by Chief Justice H.L. Dattu told the petitioners to approach the Rajasthan High Court to agitate their challenge to the Dec 24 Ordinance, providing for educational qualifications for becoming the gram panchayat sarpanch (chief), and members of panchayat and zilla samitis.
