Dear Student,

Such questions are made for enhancing the self creative skills and should be tried answering on your own. However, here are a few points that will help you in framing your answer:
  • Panchayats have existed in India since ancient times.
  • These village assemblies were instruments of self governance.
  • They managed key affairs of village.
  • Traditionally elders of the village were parts of panchayats.
  • They also settled disputes between villagers.
  • They continued to exist during the British rule in India.
  • However, due to lack of financial powers or revenue collection streams during British era, they had only moral persuasive powers instead of real administrative powers.
  • In the post independent era, on recommendations of Balawant Rai committee, panchayats were re-organised as units of self governance.
  • In 1992, through 73rd Constitutional Amendment Act Panchayats were made constitutional status.
  • Today, they function as instruments of decentralisation.
