Local Self-government is the management and governance of local affairs by a local body or authority. These local bodies may be municipal corporations or panchayats. According to D. Lockard, local government may be loosely defined as a public organization, authorized to decide and administer a limited range of public policies within relatively small territory which is a subdivision of a regional or national government. A nation develops from its roots and for a nation to develop we need a strong base and in a country like India, the base is the local self-governments like municipalities and panchayats etc. These are the grassroots of a democracy in our country. It gives a good amount of exposure to the people who participate in the governance and running of these institution, in both political and social aspects. In rural areas the self-governing bodies are the Panchayats and in urban it is the municipal corporations etc.
