Broadly speaking, it can be said that the important functions of the Council are to provide services such as education, health, communication and to undertake programmes for the development of agriculture and rural industries. It is expected that the expansion of programmes of education and communication should be done in such a way that it will be conducive to the development of agriculture and industries and emphasis should be placed on programmes such as irrigation and cooperation. It is also considered a special responsibility of the Zilla Parishad to pay attention to the upliftment of the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes. The above-mentioned functions are also within the purview of the State Government. Therefore, the work has been divided between the State Government and the Zilla Parishad and changes are made as per the need. For example, primary education has been completely entrusted to the Council. The Council carries out the works of construction of school buildings, supervision of the work of teachers, etc. The operation of primary schools in cities which are municipalities but do not have school boards is also entrusted to the Council. Although the education officer of the council is responsible for inspecting secondary schools and sending grant money, the Zilla Parishad cannot take any notice of it. Regarding communication, the construction and maintenance of national and state highways is with the state government, while the construction and maintenance of district roads, small access roads, etc. is with the council. In the irrigation scheme, projects that will provide water to land up to one hundred hectares can be taken up by the council, while projects larger than that come under the purview of the state government.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"vc_row wpb_row vc_row-fluid\"><div class=\"wpb_column vc_column_container vc_col-sm-12\"><div class=\"vc_column-inner\"><div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t<h2><strong>Panchayat Samiti Functions<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0Panchayat Samiti is an important local self-government body, which mainly works in rural areas to provide various developmental functions and government services.
