The National Panchayati Raj Day is observed every year on April 24.
The day marks a defining moment in the history of decentralization of power to the grassroots, with the institutionalization of Panchayati Raj, through the Constitution (73rd Amendment) Act, 1992 which came into force with effect from that day.
National Panchayati Raj Day is commemorated as a grand event on a big scale and is being generally held outside the National Capital.
The word panchayat comes from the Sanskrit words ‘panch’ (meaning five) and ‘ayat’ (meaning assembly).
This year’s National Panchayati Raj Day holds a special significance as it would be commemorating 30 years of Panchayati Raj in India.
The theme for the National Panchayati Raj Day 2023 is ‘Sustainable Panchayat: Building Healthy, Water Sufficient, Clean & Green Villages.’
The theme focuses on promoting sustainable development in rural areas by ensuring the availability of clean water, promoting good health practices, and creating a clean and green environment.
