Abstract:

To feel the real taste of the West Bengal Panchayat system, there needs to be an interpretation of the socio-economic background of the representatives originating from rural politics. The socio-economic background of the representatives, as we call them, leaders, influences the work of any organisation. The leaders, regardless of the social background from which they have originated, however, their ideas, views and other responsibilities are responsible for the influence of lending to the organisation. Naturally, to understand the age, gender, education, profession and caste, everything depends on the nature of the leadership of those organisations. The socialists believe that it is possible to feel the leadership of any organisation through their determination; again, the background of the leaders provides a clear idea about the political culture of the organisation. Before the policy of reservation at the Panchayat level, there were few chances of representation from the backward class people. But after the implementation of reservation policy at Panchayat level, it creates the opportunity for the backward class leaders at the rural politics Through the 73rd Amendment Act, 1993 one-third of the seats are also reserved for the women in all stages of Panchayats, which lead a great change at the Panchayat system of West Bengal and also a great change evolved among the political elite. In this paper, I want to highlight the social background of the rural representatives in West Bengal and their contribution in rural development in a lucid manner.
