Introduction
Panchayat Raj is an innovative experiment in the making of modern India. The Balwantrai Mehta Committee recommended a three-tier Panchayat Raj system for decentralization of power in rural development. Accordingly, the Government of Maharashtra passed the Maharashtra Zilla Parishads and Panchayat Samitis Act, 1961 on 1st May 1962 and established a three-tier Panchayat Raj with Zilla Parishad at the district level, Panchayat Samiti at the group level and Gram Panchayat at the village level. Satara Zilla Parishad was established in May 1962 under the guidance of Hon. Yashwantrao Chavan.Abasaheb Parlekar was the first president of Satara Zilla Parishad.Today there are 11 Panchayat Samiti and 1500 Gram Panchayats working to develop rural areas. Through the 73rd constitutional amendment, women have been allowed to participate in power and more powers have been given to Gram Panchayats through the Gram Sabha. Satara Zilla Parishad has always been a pioneer in implementing any new scheme, campaign, or campaign of the government.
