Question

give 1reason why we need local bodies in city.
​

Answer 1

Answer:

Local bodies for example Gram Panchayat(for rural areas) and municipality (for urban areas) have their members and chairpersons, that are elected directly/ indirectly by the eligible voters of a particular local area. Because both the election candidate as well as the voters come from the same area, both are well aware of the ground reality of their area and the improvements as well as changes needed. Hence a local body serve as a better medium to tackle issues at a local level and also provides for an increased accountability on the part of the elected members as it is much easier to directly contact the members/chairpersons of such local bodies than of some state/national level body.
