Roadblocks for PRIs in effective delivery of services
Elite Capture: Powers and resources devolved to local bodies are frequently captured by the powerful upper caste people.
Proxy Representation: There is a presence of Panch-Pati and Proxy representation in case of women and SC/STs representatives respectively.
Fund (lack of fiscal decentralization): Mostly they lack their own revenue funds and over 90% of the funds that PRIs handle are tied to some schemes (mostly central schemes) reducing PRIs to simple agents of higher-level governments.
Functions (lack of clarity in devolved functions): and paucity of adequate qualified functionaries has allowed concentration of powers with the states.
Functionaries (poor human resources): Absence of any secretarial support and lower levels of technical knowledge, manual auditing.
Non-availability of information at the local level: It leads to adhocism in prioritisation of schemes/ programmes, poor decision-making, and narrow participation of people in the process.
