What is decentralisation?
- Decentralisation is the distribution of some powers by the central authority such as the central government to lower associates such as the state government.
A major step towards decentralisation in India:
- In 1992, by the 73rd constitutional amendment act, the third tier of government was formed at the local level called the local government.
- Through this amendment, it was made mandatory for the state government to share some of its powers and resources with the local government bodies.
- The state election commission has been formed that ensures that the election to the local government bodies will be held at regular intervals.
- Thus, the 73rd amendment made the third tier of government more powerful and effective.
