Abstract
Panchayat Raj institutions which aim at democratic decentralization constitute the backbone to the democratic process. It is one of the cherished goals of the Constitution of India to reinforce Panchayath Raj system with a view to involve the people at the gross roots level in the governance. The ideal of democratic decentralization will ensure that the people living in villages take active part. Gandhiji reiterated that, for the attainment of liberty, self-government of the village is the ultimate objective. These prophetic words of Gandhi reflect the importance of public participation in administration. It is an undying fact that, Panchayat Raj is the only means to assure public participation.
