What to Focus On

  • Zamindari system was abolished to help farmers.
  • Better farming tools, seeds, and fertilisers were provided.
  • Irrigation facilities like canals and tubewells were developed.

  • Local people understand local problems better.
  • It encourages people to take part in decision-making.
  • It builds leadership at the grassroots level.

  • It is a three-tier system: Village, Block, and District levels.
  • The 73rd Amendment Act (1992) gave constitutional status to Panchayati Raj.
  • Regular elections are held every 5 years.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The Sarpanch is elected by the Panchayat members, not directly by the people.

Gram Sabha and Gram Panchayat are the same thing.

Zila Parishad is at the block level, not district level.

Memory Tips
