What was the view of Gandhiji on Panchayats?
Mahatma Gandhi upheld Panchayat rajas the establishment of India's political framework. It would have been a decentralized type of government where every town would be liable for its own affairs. The expression of such a dream was Gram Swaraj ("town self-administration"). Rather India built up a profoundly concentrated type of regime. Notwithstanding, this has been addressed by the decentralization of a few regulatory capacities to the nearby level, engaging chosen gram panchayats. There are huge contrasts between the conventional panchayati raj framework, that imagined Gandhi, and the framework formalized in India in 1992.
