ମେନୁ ଓ ଲେବଲର ଓଡ଼ିଆ ଅନୁବାଦ ଏକ ଡ୍ରାଫ୍ଟ, ସମୀକ୍ଷା ବାକି ଅଛି। ଏହି ପୃଷ୍ଠାର ଲେଖା ଏବେ ଓଡ଼ିଆରେ ଉପଲବ୍ଧ ନାହିଁ, ତେଣୁ ତଳେ ଇଂରାଜୀରେ ଦେଖାଯାଉଛି।

Area of study

Indian neighbourhood

Questions under design — no findings

Local government in India’s neighbouring countries — the second step of our pathway, after India and before wider comparison.

Questions we intend to study

  • How are village and local councils organised in neighbouring countries, and what does that suggest for comparison with Panchayati Raj?
  • Bihar shares a border with Nepal: what questions about cross-border rural life can be studied responsibly, and with which sources?
  • Which comparisons are meaningful, and which would mislead because laws, data and histories differ?

These are questions, not findings. See how we study.
