By local self-government we mean the management of the affairs of a village, town, district or province by the people them­selves through their elected representatives, as distinct from im­perial self-government, which is the management of the affairs of the whole nation by the elected central government.

In England, for example, the purely local affairs of the parish are managed by the elected Parish Councils, of the towns by Town-Council or Corporations, and of the counties by Country-Councils.

People who cannot manage the local affairs of a village, a town, a district, or a province, cannot hope to manage the affairs of a kingdom or an empire. They must learn the art of self-government by experience before they can expect to succeed in national self-government.

With the coming of Gandhiji on the political scene the idea of self-govern­ment took deeper roots in the country. Municipal corporations developed gradually so that by the time Independence was finally achieved India was prepared to face her new duties and respon­sibilities in the matter of self-government.

India is a very vast country and her problems are equally vast. Because of the vastness of the land, most of the people and their native villages are far away from the seats of the central and state governments. The problems faced by the villagers do not get adequate attention from the governments. Besides, the villagers haven’t any share or say in the policies, programmes and projects intended for them. So there arises the necessity of having certain administrative machinery at the lowest level to take care of the villages. This need is fulfilled by local self-governments.

Local self-government implies the management of local affairs by the representatives of the locality itself. Local self-governing institutions like Panchayats, Municipalities and Corporations deal with matters chiefly of local concerns, such as health, sanitation, water supply, primary education, construction and maintenance of local roads, street lighting, drainage, disposal of sewage, upkeep of parks and gardens, establishment of libraries and reading rooms, and other such activities.

Modern governments have to look after the welfare of the people. In order to perform this well, the government has to identify the problem of the people and find solutions for them. It is impossible for the government at the national level or the state level to identify the problems of each village or town, as they are overloaded with the general problems facing them. Local self-government bodies alone can identify the problems of a village or a town and solve them easily, because they have the first-hand knowledge of the local problems. The local government also gets the direct co-operation from the people to solve the problems which are local in character. The people also get direct participation in the local government.
