Answer 1

Answer: Gram Sabha

Explanation:

Legislature of the Panchayat is Gram Sabha.

The constitution clearly defines that Gram Sabha exercises exactly the same power and functions( at the village level) as the Legislature of a State. The Gram Sabha approves plans ,programmes and project for both economic and social development before it is implemented by the Panchayat at the village level.

The Gram Sabha even identifies or select people who is eligible for various beneficiary schemes under the poverty and other programmes. Gram Sabha  provides with a certificate of utilization of funds to the Panchayat at the village level  before they can carry out and implement such programmes, plans and projects.
