Construction of Panchayat Ghars

To ensure that all Gram Panchayats in the country have Panchayat Ghars, Ministry of Panchayati Raj provides financial assistance to the States under the scheme of Rashtriya Gram Swaraj Yojana (RGSY) for construction of Panchayat Ghars at GP level at the cost of Rs. 10 lakh per unit including 25% State share. Panchayat Ghars are also being constructed under the Development Grant component of Backward Regions Grant Fund wherein untied grants are released to 250 identified backward districts based on the Decentralised District Plans.

Further, construction of Bharat Nirman Rajiv Gandhi Seva Kendra (BNRGSK) at the Gram Panchayat and Block level has been included as one of the works under Mahatma Gandhi National Employment Guarantee Act (MGNREGA). The objective of BNRGSK is to provide space to facilitate the functioning of MGNREGA office at the GP/Block levels and serve as Knowledge Resource Centre for citizen’s access to information.
