The decisions were taken by Central Empowered Committee (CEC) of the Revamped Rashtriya Gram Swaraj Abhiyan (RGSA).
Challenges faced by Panchayati Raj Institutions (PRIs)
- Skilling and Training gaps: lack of adequate skills hinders competency in rural governance and undermines capacity-building efforts
- Lack of support staff: such as secretaries, junior engineers, computer operators, and data entry operators.
- Lack of digital Infrastructure especially in rural areas: leads to Urban Rural digital divide
- Other challenges: service delivery issues, lack of literacy etc.
Initiatives taken by CEC to address these challenges
- Adoption of a Standardized Honorarium System under RGSA: to ensure fair compensation and bring consistency in training.
- Funding for long-term domestic training programs: to train panchayat officials in spatial planning, disaster management etc.
- Elected Representatives of Panchayats to be trained in Smart Classrooms
- Augmenting Panchayat Infrastructure:
- construction of Gram Panchayat Bhawans with Common Service Centers to improve infrastructure and promote digital governance
- Investment in Panchayat Infrastructure in the Vibrant Villages of the Border Areas of North East and Jammu and Kashmir.
