Panchayati raj system in India has been implemented after the 73 and 74 amendment

panchayat samiti and the zilla parishad.
What do you mean by gram sabha?
It’s a term used for all the legible voters in the village.
What are their functions?
They elect the members of the panchayati and the sarpanch.
How is the sarpanch elected?
He is either directly elected or nominated from amongst the members themselves.
M1: How can there be two systems? Only one should be there...
Me: Sorry sir. I mistook, the sarpanch is directly elected by the people.
What about the next level?
Panchayat samiti is the next level sir. It covers for approximately 15-20 villages.
What about the next one?
Zilla parishad sir.
Who is the head?
Zilla parishad chairman sir, he is an elected member sir.
How is administration carried out?
The district collector is head of the executive part of the ZP.
How is the functioning done?
The executive prepares the plan. Submits it to the ZP and then does the work sir.
Tell me about the distribution of funds from the district level to the grass root
levels?
Sorry sir. I am not aware of it.
Tell me about the women reservation in panchayati raj.
There is one third reservation for women in the system sir, which has been recently
increased to fifty percent.
What about SC and ST?
There is representation in proportion to the population for the SC and ST Sir.
Tell me about the total reservation.
Approximately 20 percent for SC and ST combined and female reservation is reservation
within reservation.
Don’t you play any games?
Sorry sir. I don’t. But I used to play kabaddi.
Don’t you think they are necessary?
But in view of the current intermediate education....< answer is interrupted>
Member 2 takes over!
So you like cooking... your old CM NTR told that he loved Ulava charu. Can you
tell me how to cook it?
I tell a little about it. He asks...
How much time does it take to cook...?
Approximately half an hour sir.
I think it takes 7-8 hrs.
May be sir. Now days all the instant items are available sir. They may do within a short
span of time.
Can you name one chief minister who rose from the level of an industrial
worker?
Madhu koda.
From Andhra Pradesh?
No idea sir.
It’s Anjaiah. Have you heard of him?
Yes sir.
What’s your opinion about your Indian budget this year...?
It’s a very good budget sir. In the current view of global recession and keeping the
inflation under control all the measures have been taken.
More...
The social sector spending has been doubled sir.
What’s the current social sector spending?
9 percent sir.
No I think your number is far from the real one....

How much does one trillion dollar mean?
Approximately fifty lakh crores sir.
What’s the share of India in the foreign trade?

Have you heard about European Union? Tell me about it.
It’s a union of 27 countries. They form a custom union and offer free movement of
people across the boundaries.
Are you talking about schengen visa?
Yes sir.
But UK does not come under it.
Yes sir. But most of the countries come under it sir.
What about Euro?
It’s a common currency for most of the EU countries. It’s touted to emerge as a
competitor for the dollar sir. Approximately 40 percent of the world trade is carried out
in the Euro sir.
What is the duration of 11th five year plan?
Up to 2012 sir.
Do you know the allocation for various sectors?
No sir...
Now member 2 takes over:
Dr. Bharath Gupta. Is it possible for someone to have a title doctor even
without completing MBBS?
Yes sir. Anyone who has completed PhD can have a doctorate sir. Even they may be
conferred honorary. someone told me a small difference between
the MBBS doctor and the other one sir. MBBS one is Dr. While the PhD one is DR.
All of them laugh... no no... Nothing is like that.
Dr. NTR is given... Was he a doctor?
No sir. He was conferred honorary doctorate by the Andhra University sir.
Are doctorates recognised?
Yes sir.
I think no.
Then I don’t know correctly sir.
Suppose a patient comes to the emergency room with chest pain and your
junior doctor suspects it as cardiac pains even though its gastric pain. What will
you do?
I tell all the treatment strategy of angina and MI.
Suppose your junior has done the mistake of diagnosing the Gastric problem as
MI. What will you do?
He has done no mistake to condemn sir. Its basic dictum that anyone with severe
symptoms of chest pain has to be looked for the anginal pain and the other entire
possibilities next sir.
Suppose he has done another mistake?
I will train him sir. And if it’s a grave mistake putting danger to the lives of another. I
will take the matter to the higher ups and see that he is reprimanded for the same.
Is there any Supreme Court ruling in this regard?
Yes sir. Francis D Souza from Nunavut hospital case regarding this.
NTR from your state. He does not act very well. Why you think was much hit?
Sir he has a charisma and required charm sir. Whenever he donned the role of Lord
Krishna or Rama people took him to be a god sir. Hence he was a very big hit sir.
Had Rajanikanth been similarly hit in your state?
No sir.
I say food is culture specific... what do you say...
I give him explanation regarding the culture, cuisine, and local availability and give
sufficient examples.
Do you say cuisine and climate are related?
Yes sir. Indirectly they may be related due to the food production affected by the
climate. And secondly people living in different climates may be having different food
needs.
Why do Andhra people consume more curds rather than west Bengal? Do you
give any explanation?
May there is lot of buffaloes in Andhra. Other than that I can’t find any relation sir.
Are 73rd and 74th amendment act same?
No sir they are different. One related to the panchayat and the other to the municipality.
What is the one distinct feature of municipality plan?
He gives me a clue regarding the planning. I tell DPC. He then positively corrects my
mistake.

resistant variety of rice sir.

Chandigarh?

I tell about him as a ruler of misdirected energies. His miscalculated numismatic
experiment and the transfer of capital from Delhi to Devagiri fired back very badly.
