Overview

In keeping with the 73rd Constitutional amendment, Uttar Pradesh Kshetra Panchayat and Zila Panchayat Adhiniyam was enacted in 1994 to establish a three-tier Panchayat Raj Institution (PRI) system of elected bodies-Gram Panchayats (GPs) at village level, Kshetra Panchayats (KPs) at intermediate level and Zila Panchayats (ZPs) at the district level.

Besides paving way for decentralization of functions, functionaries and funds till then vested with Government, the (PRI) system aimed at increasing participation of people and effective implementation of rural development programmes. The overall supervision,co-ordination, planning and implementation of developmental schemes vested with the ZPs.As of March 2005, there were 70 Zila Panchayats, 820 Kshetra Panchayats and 52002 Gram Panchayats in the state. The last election of PRI's were held in the year 2005.

The Act envisaged devolution of funds, functions and functionaries to PRIs. Of the twenty-nine functions listed in the 11th Schedule of the Constitution which were to be transferred to PRIs by the State Government, only twelve functions have been transferred till date (July 2007).
