Answer 2

The basic idea behind decentralisation is that there are a large no. of problems and issues which are best settled at local level. People have better knowledge of problems in their localities. They also have better ideas on where to spend money and how to manage things more effeciently. Besides, at the local level it is possible for the people to directly participate in decision making. This helps to inculate a habit of democratic participation. Local govt. is the best way to realise one important principle of democracy,namely local self-govt.
