Abstract: We prove Suslin's local-global principle for principal congruence subgroups of Chevalley groups. Let $G$ be a Chevalley--Demazure group scheme with a root system $Phie{A}_1$ and $E$ its elementary subgroup. Let $R$ be a ring and $I$ an ideal of $R$. Assume additionally that $R$ has no residue fields of 2 elements if $Phi=C_2$ or $G_2$. Theorem. Let $ginG(R[X],XR[X])$. Suppose that for every maximal ideal $m$ of $R$ the image of $g$ under the localization homomorphism at $m$ belongs to $E(R_m[X],I{R}_m[X])$. Then, $ginE(R[X],IR[X])$. The theorem is a common generalization of the result of E.Abe for the absolute case ($I=R$) and H.Apte--P.Chattopadhyay--R.Rao for classical groups. It is worth mentioning that for the absolute case the local-global principle was obtained by V.Petrov and A.Stavrova in more general settings of isotropic reductive groups.
