Answer:
In India, panchayats cover 29 subjects of economic development and social justice, and are best suited for effective delivery of services in villages in diverse areas such as telecom, sanitation, water supply, rural energy, etc. In India, there are over 2.5 lakh panchayats, 32 lakh elected representatives (more than the population of Norway) including 12 lakh as women representatives. A sizeable proportion of representatives belong to SC, ST and the OBC communities. In fact, the system of panchayats in India is a social and political empowerment on a scale unparalleled anywhere in the world (Aiyar, 2006).
