The chapters included in this book discuss in detail the formation and working of the Gram Panchayats, Panchayat Samitis and Zila Parishads, which are the three tiers of Panchayat Raj Institutions in India. The powers and responsibilities assigned to them by 7 and 73 Constitution Amendment Acts 1956 and 1992 respectively are also highlighted besides a brief history of local-self-governance prevalent in various provinces of British India. It is hoped that the book will be found useful and informative by all those who are interested in the studies of Panchayat Raj Institutions in India.
