Bihar Panchayati Raj Institutions Act

The Bihar Panchayati Raj Institutions Act provides a legal framework for decentralized local governance in Bihar. It empowers village, intermediate, and district councils to involve local communities in decision-making, development planning, and management of public resources. The act outlines the structure, functions, and election procedures for these elected bodies, promoting democratic participation, transparency, and accountability at the grassroots level. Its aim is to ensure local self-governance that reflects the needs and preferences of the community, fostering inclusive development and better service delivery across rural areas of Bihar.
