- Part IX of the Constitution (Articles 243 to 243O) deals with the Panchayats.
- The 73rd Constitutional Amendment Act, 1992 gave constitutional status to Panchayati Raj Institutions; the 74th Amendment deals with municipalities.

- NITI Aayog's State Support Mission helps States with planning and aligning programmes to development goals.
ಮೇನ್ಸ್
GS-II (local self-government) and GS-III (sustainable development). Panchayats are constitutionally recognised but often lack funds, functions and functionaries; localising SDGs through Panchayat plans and SDG-aligned budgets can improve outcomes. The way forward is real devolution of the Eleventh Schedule subjects, stronger local finances and capacity building.
