How is a Gram Panchayat formed?
A Gram Panchayat is formed by the members elected by the people of a village. Every village with a population of a least 500 people has a Gram Panchayat. The members of the Panchayat are called Panchas and their head is called the Sarpanch. They are elected for three years by adult villagers. The number of members of the Panchayat must be atleast five and at the most ten. Every Panchayat must have a lady member and one or two members belonging to scheduled castes.
