What is Gram Sabha
The term Gram Sabha is defined in the Constitution of India under Article 243(b).
Gram Sabha is the primary body of the Panchayati Raj system and by far the largest.
It is a permanent body.
Gram Sabha is the Sabha of the electorate. All other institutions of the Panchayati Raj like the Gram Panchayat, Block Panchayat and Zilla Parishad are constituted by elected representatives.
The decisions taken by the Gram Sabha cannot be annulled by any other body. The power to annul a decision of the Gram Sabha rests with the Gram Sabha only.
Who are the members of Gram Sabha
Persons, those who are above 18 years of age and
living in the village and
whose names are included in the electoral rolls for the Panchayat at the village level.
Scheduled meetings of the Gram Sabha
According to the State Panchayat Raj Acts, the Gram Sabha must meet at least two to four times in a year.
For people's convenience, in most of the States, four national-international days have been identified as reference dates for these meetings. They are
Republic Day (26th January)
Labour day (1st May)
Independence Day (15th August)
Gandhi Jayanti (2nd October)
Gram Panchayats are however free to convene Gram Sabha on other dates according to their convenience.
