Research Scholar, Institute for Social and Economic Change (ISEC), Nagarabhavi Post, Bengalur Online published on 5 December, 2019. Abstract It is imperative to see the issue of decentralised governments and gender equality, as it has its own importance in rural India. The decentralised governments are nearer to the lives and well-being of people and provide basic services to enable in developing an egalitarian society. In India with the introduction of the 73rd Constitutional Amendment Act, rural local self governments have gained importance among researchers and policy makers. The 73rd Amendment Act mandates the state governments to establish local self-governments in rural areas once in five years. This paper tries to look at women representation in panchayats and their role in mobilising revenue resources at panchayats. It would also be relevant here to look at the importance of Panchayat Raj Institutions in the globalisation era. Since globalisation has turned out to be disadvantageous for the marginal sections of the society. Top Keywords Panchayat raj institutions, revenue mobilisation, women representation, gender discrimination, local governance. Top |
