People power and poverty lie at the bottom of democracy but the system operates from the top. This creates the Panchayat Dilemma. Panchayat is said to be the God that failed but remains the last hope of the poor in the villages. Will Indian democracy take a u turn to reach the poor is a big question mark. The book tries to solve some of the riddles related to Panchayats and throws light on issue which the policy makers have so far by passed or over looked. Panchayats should not be looked at from above on the contrary the top governance should be looked at from the Panchayats levels. This may solve most of the problems facing the top heavy democracy today. The book may open new doors for the success of Panchayats and more realistic approach to village Panchayats as vibrant units of development for the poor. 204 pp. Seller Inventory # 64824
