Option 2 : Second Five Year Plan

The correct answer is the  Second Five-Year Plan.

  • In the second five-year plan Balwant Rai Mehta Committee suggested the introduction of Panchayati Raj in India.
  • Panchayati Raj Institution (PRI) is a system of rural local self-government in India.
  • Local Self Government is the management of local affairs by such local bodies who have been elected by the local people.
  • PRI was constitutionalized through the 73rd Constitutional Amendment Act, 1992 to build democracy at the grassroots level and was entrusted with the task of rural development in the country.
  • In its present form and structure, PRI has completed 26 years of existence. However, a lot remains to be done in order to further decentralization and strengthen democracy at the grass-root level.
