Variations in Gram Panchayat structure: While the basic structure of Gram Panchayats remains consistent across India, there are variations in their composition, powers, and functions based on state-specific legislation and administrative practices. Some states may have a three-tier Panchayat system consisting of Gram Panchayats, Panchayat Samitis (Block Panchayats), and Zilla Parishads (District Panchayats), while others may have a two-tier system. The number of members, reservation policies, and administrative arrangements also vary from state to state.
