Covering various aspects of topics related to the Panchayati Raj System, Schemes and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) through this ‘Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav’ iconic week, let’s provide a strong source of inspiration to all citizens of this country inviting their ideas on the PanchayatVision@2047.

A streamlined governance, especially at the local level benefits the nation as a whole. India is a signatory to the UN 2030 Agenda to achieve inclusive and people-centric sustainable development through the 17 SDGs.

Thus, with greater cooperation from the citizens of India, efforts of the Government of India and the local bodies towards a qualitative and quantitative transformation of the Panchayati Raj System would be fulfilled.

Last date to share your ideas is 14th May 2022.

Gram Panchayat is the primary unit of Panchayat Raj Institutions or local self-government. It is considered as the first formal democratic institution under the directive principle in the Indian constitution. It is a cabinet of the village elders, directly elected by the adult citizens of the village. The Panchayat has tenure of five years and is directly elected. It has income through taxes to perform its functions.

Panchayat Raj Institutions are involved in rural development through their participation in planning and execution at the village level. Gram Sabha which is an integral part of the Panchayat system is being empowered to involve all the people in the decentralized planning.

The Gram Sabha is recognised as the people’s parliament at the village level—the lowest level of administration and comprises all adult members of the village. It has the power to plan, approve, and monitor various development programmes for its village.

State governments should make adequate efforts to devolve funds, functions, and functionaries to panchayats for them to effectively plan economic development and social justice schemes.

Panchayats should also be encouraged to carry out local audits regularly so that Finance Commission grants are not delayed.

The Panchayati Raj systems should be constitutionally recognised. It also recommended constitutional provisions to recognise free and fair elections for the Panchayati Raj systems. We should recommend reorganisation of villages to make the gram panchayat more viable. It should also recommend that village panchayats should have more finances for their activities.
