Описание к видео Towards an Empowered and Inclusive Local Governance in Punjab

In a Provincial Stakeholders Consultation on Local Government Elections in Punjab, over 330 women activists, ex-councillors, and local government network members from seven districts joined government representatives, experts, and civil society activists. The discussion focused on the crucial role of local government as the foundation of democracy. Speakers expressed concerns about the five-year absence of elected local governance in Punjab, where bureaucracy had taken over, violating Article 140-A of the Constitution. They urged the Punjab government to hold local elections immediately, emphasizing the need to restore democratic representation at the grassroots level.
