A gram panchayat (village council) is the only grassroots-level of panchayati raj formalised local self-governance system in India at the village or small-town level, and has a sarpanch as its elected head.[1]


The failed attempts to deal with local matters at the national level caused, in 1992, the reintroduction of panchayats for their previously used purpose as an organisation for local self-governance.[1] There are about 250,000 gram panchayats in India,[2][3] that are being gigabit-broadband enabled under the BharatNet and Digital India initiative.[4][5][6]

Structure


Gram panchayats are panchayats at base level in panchayat raj institutions (or PRIs), governed by the 73rd Constitutional Amendment, which is concerned with rural local governments.[7]



  • Panchayat at District (or apex) Level

  • Panchayat at Intermediate Level

  • Panchayat at Base Level


The gram panchayat is divided into wards and each ward is represented by a Ward Member or Commissioner, also referred to as a Panch or Panchayat Member, who is directly elected by the villagers.[8] The panchayat is chaired by the president of the village, known as a Sarpanch. The term of the elected representatives is five years. The Secretary of the panchayat is a non-elected representative, appointed by the state government, to oversee panchayat activities.[9]
