Five gram panchayats were selected from each block. In this way total 20 villages selected randomly. For secting the gram panchayat members, a list of members from 20 selected gram panchayats were prepared with the help of gram panchayat secretary. All the members of selected 20 gram panchayats were included in the sample. Finally, total 200 gram panchayat members were selected for the present study from all 20 gram panchayats. The information was collected with the help of structured interview schedule by interviewing personally to the respondents.
