This study addresses the roles of
different levels of government and the institutional
arrangements involved in the provision of key services. The
focus throughout is on disadvantaged rural areas. The study
demonstrates the approach for a small number of sectors that
have been "devolved" to rural governments
(panchayats), but it is immediately applicable to any other
sector of the 29 subjects eligible for devolution. The study
intends to assist the Government of India and state
governments in defining the role of panchayats in the
delivery of key services to rural people. The study focuses
on Kerala, Karnataka, West Bengal and Rajasthan; four states
that cover a range of situations in India. Since the
assignment of responsibilities to local governments is a
state responsibility and Indian states have followed
different approaches. All four states examined by this study
have shown commitment to devolution in principle, but they
differ considerably in the characteristics and pace of
reforms. It is a study on what the various levels of
panchayats could do in the delivery of these services within
the decentralized government structure created by the 1993
Amendment to the constitution of India. |
