Subject: Polity
Book: Indian Polity by M. Laxmikanth
Introduces the three-tier structure of rural self-government: Gram Panchayat at the village level, Panchayat Samiti at the block level, and Zila Parishad at the district level. Born from Article 40 of the DPSPs, this system was constitutionalized through the 73rd Amendment Act (1992). Explains key provisions like regular elections, reservation for SC/ST and women, State Election Commissions, and the Gram Sabha’s role. Panchayati Raj Institutions (PRIs) empower local communities, improve resource allocation, and encourage direct participation in governance. However, challenges persist: irregular funding, bureaucratic interference, and variable capacity across states. Despite these, Panchayati Raj remains central to India’s grassroots democracy.
