Which statement best captures the vision of 73rd and 74th Constitutional Amendments?
- Create parallel governments to State governments
- Establish direct democracy replacing representative democracy
- Deepen democracy through decentralization, participation, and accountability at grassroots
- Transfer all State functions to local bodies
Answer: Deepen democracy through decentralization, participation, and accountability at grassroots
73rd/74th Amendments aim to: (a) Decentralize power/functions/funds to local levels, (b) Ensure inclusive participation through reservations, (c) Enhance accountability via Gram Sabha/social audit, (d) Promote participatory planning. Not about creating parallel structures but strengthening federalism's third tier. Realizing this vision requires continuous political will, capacity building, and citizen engagement.
