Local Self-government in India - G.V.K. Rao Committee (1985)

G.V.K. Rao Committee (1985)

The G.V.K. Rao Committee was appointed to once again look at various aspects of PRIs. The Committee was of the opinion that a total view of rural development must be taken in which PRIs must play a central role in handling people's problems. It recommended the following:-

• PRIs have to be activated and provided with all the required support to become effective organisations,

• PRIs at district level and below should be assigned the work of planning, implementation and monitoring of rural development programmes, and

• the block development office should be the spinal cord of the rural development process.
