The trueand effective governance is achieved if the power is transferred to the grassroot level. The Gram Panchayat is the last unit of the Indian democracy. Theleader of the grass root level knows well the need at the village or grass rootlevel, because he is accustomed with the behavioral attitude of the man withthe nature. Accordingly, the Indian constitution under 73 rd ConstitutionalAmendment has empowered the Panchayati Raj institution in which it istermed as Local Self Govt. It has empowered the Panchayati Raj institution touse their available resources in the village level. Hence, the Panchayati Rajinstitutions have the vital role to play in the development process beingimplemented by the DRDA as per the guidelines provided by the Govt. ofIndia and State Govt. from time to time.ROLE OF PANCHAYATI RAJ INSTITUTION IN IMPLEMENTATION OF RDPROGRAMMES BY DRDA:DRDA is an autonomous body registered under section 3 of SocietiesRegistration Act 1860. It has been created for implementation of centrallysponsored / state sponsored programme for eradication of rural poverty.

13enumerators / supervisors are engaged who are to contact and consult theconcerned Panchayat leaders while carrying out census works in a particulararea and to conduct the census works by taking the views of the concernedPanchayat leaders. In finalization of final BPL list the Panchayat leaders aregiven exclusive information. For example while finalization of BPL list of 2002BPL census, the draft BPL list was prepared first and circulated among thePanchayat leaders for their views. Lastly, the Govt. empowered the ZillaParishad to finalize the cut off score for preparation of final BPL list.Accordingly, on the recommendation of Zilla Parishad score 26 was adoptedas the cut off score and the final BPL list of this District was preparedaccordingly.C.

Rural unemployedyouths from BPL category are provided assistance for their self employment.In selection and identification of Swarozgaries the Gram Sabha i.e. the VillagePanchayat is empowered. It is possible that the Gram Sabha held at thePanchayat HQs may not have the participation of all the BPL families.Therefore, in order to effort maximum participation of poor, a three memberteam consisting of the BDO or his representative, the Bankers and theSarpanch (Anchal Samity member) should visit each of the habitation in thePanchayat to ascertain from the BPL families the persons who can becovered under self employment programme for providing assistance.The programme SGSY has a mixed component assistance of Govt. subsidyand Bank loan.
