How the exam will ask it

ಪ್ರಿಲಿಮ್ಸ್

  • The 73rd Constitutional Amendment Act, 1992 inserted Part IX (Articles 243 to 243O) into the Constitution.
  • The Eleventh Schedule lists the functional items that may be devolved to Panchayats.
  • Urban local bodies received constitutional status through the 74th Amendment Act, 1992, which inserted Part IXA.
  • NITI Aayog's State Support Mission works with States on development planning and governance reforms.

ಮೇನ್ಸ್

GS-II Governance: Panchayats have had constitutional status since the 73rd Amendment, yet devolution of funds, functions and functionaries remains uneven across States. The Eleventh Schedule and State Finance Commissions provide the framework, but weak capacity and limited own-source revenue constrain local planning. The way forward is stronger capacity building, timely fund transfers and integrated Panchayat-level development plans, which is the direction of initiatives like Viksit Panchayat.
