Urban Management & Governance Structures in IndiaRavikant Joshi
This PPT delivered to Scholars of Indian School of Public Policy explains various urban management and governance structure found in various States and urban local bodies of India and their limitations
ANALYSIS OF URBAN LOCAL SELF GOVERNMENT IN INDIA Gaurav Purohit
INTRODUCTION TO LOCAL SELF GOVERNMENT, 74TH CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT, STRUCTURE OF URBAN LOCAL SELF GOVERNMENT, FUNCTIONS, TYPES, PROBLEM AREAS OF LOCAL SELF GOVERNMENT, CONCLUSION
Laws are integral part of any rational/irrational system of governance and management. Laws are made invariably to restrict the right and liberty of people, presuming people will create havoc once they are given absolute freedom. Laws remain critical for a democratic governance, because laws are understood to create level playing fields for all stakeholders. Laws remain subject specific focusing on a particular group/category of people with an agenda enshrined in it. Punjab Municipal Corporation Act,1976,deals with the issue of managing large urban settlements through the creation of Urban Local Bodies defining their structure, construction, election, office bearers, operations, decision making, listing authorities , defining power, role, responsibilities, authorities and functions besides resources needed for urban governance. Law also defines the task/duties , it is supposed to perform subject to conditions and regulations made and defined .Law is mandated to make corporations, intuitions of self-governance at local level to govern the cities in a democratic manner by involving communities and people. But the way law has been framed , provisions defined, it does not empower the Corporation as Governments at local level in their own right but continue to make them sub-servient to state authorities as a department. Law needs review, revision and redefinitions to make them meet the objectives and agenda defined in the 74th Constitutional Amendment Act, 1992.
Ideas of Local Self Help Governance and Panchayat Raj System (institutions) are enshrined in the Constitution of India. This instruction shall help us understand PRI and PRS.
Rural local bodies and function Panchayati Raj System (PRIs)Anjum Afroz
Rural Local Bodies play vital role in Indian Democracy as it encompasses Mahatma Gandhi's Gram Swarajya concept and includes people of bottom of pyramid in Gram Sabha. A powerful governance can be expexcted by rejuvenating Panchayati Raj System in India.
Panchayats have been the backbone of the Indian villages since the beginning of the recorded history. Gandhiji s dream of every village being a republic or Panchayats having powers has been translated into reality with the introduction of three-tier Panchayati Raj system to enlist people’s participation in rural reconstruction
