Question -

Which of the following according to you involves decentralisation?

Why are other options not sufficient for decentralisation?

a. To hold election of the Gram Panchayat.

b. Decision by the villagers themselves about what policies and programmes are useful for the village.

c. Power to call meeting of Gram Sabha.

d. A Gram Panchayat receiving the report from the Block Development Officer about the progress of a project started by the State government.



Answer -

b. Decision by the villagers themselves about what policies and programmes are useful for the village.

Rest of the three options do not involve decentralisation because elections can be held, meeting can be called and projects can be monitored even in a centralised form of government. These features are not related to the decision-making process, which is the most important aspect of decentralisation.
