The 73rd Constitutional Amendment Act of 1992 provided constitutional status to Panchayati Raj institutions in India. This landmark legislation strengthened local self-governance in rural areas by adding Part IX to the Constitution. Key provisions included the establishment of a three-tier panchayat system (village, block, and district levels), direct elections of panchayat members, reservations for Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, and women, creation of State Election Commissions, and the devolution of powers to these local bodies. Before this amendment, panchayats existed but lacked constitutional recognition and mandate.
