ABSTRACT
It is an established fact that Panchayati Raj means vesting power in the people. It is an excellent example of demoratic decentralization. There is no doubt in denying the fact that Municipal Institutions are the bedrock of democracy and in any country, the Central and provincial Governments cannot run administration in all spheres efficiently. The system of lcoal self-government provides administrative training to the people and ehances their political knowledge ,and hence, they become more responsible and self-dependent.
