    Solution

    The 73rd Constitution Amendment of 1992 introduced provisions for Panchayats at the District, Kshetra, and Village levels. It aimed to decentralize power and bring local governance into the framework of the Indian Constitution. The amendment added Part IX to the Constitution (Articles 243 to 243 O) and established a new Eleventh Schedule covering 29 subjects related to the functions of Panchayats. • District Panchayat, Kshetra Panchayat, and Village Panchayat are included under this amendment. • However, Nagar Panchayat is not included in the provisions of the 73rd Amendment, as it pertains more to urban local governance, which is governed separately by the 74th Amendment.
