Important Days

Every year, National Panchayati Raj Day is celebrated on 24 April. In 1993, by the 73rd Constitutional Amendment Act, the Panchayat system came to be implemented in the rural areas to allow for development to happen at grassroot level. The first National Panchayati Raj Day was celebrated in 2010. Since then, the National Panchayati Raj Day is celebrated on 24th April every year in India. The 73rd Constitutional Amendment added Part IX titled “The Panchayats” to the Constitution. 24 April 2024 marks the observance of the 15th National Panchayati Raj Day (NPRD).


      The Ministry is organizing a National Colloquium on - Governance at the Grassroots after Three Decades of the 73rd Constitutional Amendment - on 24th April, 2024, in New Delhi in relation to the National Panchayati Raj Day.
