dc.description.abstractThe study was conducted in Haryana state. Hisar district and Palwal district were selected from the Bhagar and Mewat cultural zone respectively. Two blocks from each district were selected randomly. From each block villages were also selected randomly. From Hisar-1 block Gangwa, Kharar, Alipur and Shikarpur and from Hansi-1 block Garhi, Ramayan, and Kharkara villages were randomly selected. From Palwal district Hodal and Hathin two blocks were randomly selected. From Hodal block Sondh, Saveli and Khirbi baptoli and from Hathin block Malai, Tonka, Lakhnaka, Dhirnki and Mandkola villages were randomly selected. Totally 80 respondents were selected from the both districts. 40 respondents were selected from each district. Panchayati Raj is not a new phenomenon in the country. Its illustration in history goes back to more than a 1000 years. It has its roots in Ancient Indian Institutions when the villages were little republics governed by their Panchayats. Majority of respondents (55%) had participation in gram panchayat activities. Knowledge level of respondents was medium and high. Majority of the respondents (56.25%) had medium attitude followed by low (23.75%) and high attitude (20%). More than one fourth (27.50%) of the respondents were engaged in farming followed by one fifth (20.00%) of the respondents were engaged in business and farm labour respectively. More than two fifth (43.75%) of the respondents had knowledge how many times meeting of „Gram Panchayat‟ held in a year. More than half (56.25%) respondents had correct knowledge that 33 per cent seats are reserved for women representatives. It has been strongly felt that an effective Panchayati Raj System can bring rapid and integrated development through people's participation. However, the Panchayats face a number of problems in performing their roles.The female headed panchayats had better performance in terms of holding panchayat &gram sabha meetings; passing resolutions; beneficiary selection; planning & budget formulation; sources of income generation; establishment of local institutions; implementation of schemes; accountability &transparency.en_US
