Success of democratic values depend on making this Panchayat bodies self dependent. All the Panchayats with in mining area are rich Panchayats in Goa.

Government grants to Panchayats is also dependent on percentage recovery of house tax. Higher the percentage higher the revenue.

There are many other think which unless Panch of a village knows will help our democracy. In other wards, what should a Panch of a Village in Goa must know?

Can we make a questionnaire for our Panch members from Goa, regarding

1. What he must know in respect of
a. His own Panchayat
b. Goa
c. India

2. What He must know of
a. Indian Penal code
b. Other acts relevant to citizens.

There are many other issue which you feel that a Panch should know .. please add in comments…

Lets work together for our Democracy.
