    The document discusses local self-government in India. It explains that there are three levels of government: central, state, and local. The local self-government is formed by people of villages, cities, and towns. In India, every village has a Gram Panchayat headed by a Sarpanch. The head of a Municipal Committee is called the President or Chairman. Octroi tax is charged on goods coming from other states. The duties of Gram Panchayat include cleaning of villages, providing clean drinking water, repairing and maintaining roads, and providing street lighting.
