Panchayats: 82
The dynamic Ernakulam district hosts a network of 82 Panchayats, functioning as integral local governing bodies overseeing the governance of rural regions within the district. Tasked with a vital role, these Panchayats bear the responsibility of providing indispensable services including water supply, sanitation, and healthcare to the inhabitants residing in the villages they cater to. In addition, they are entrusted with the maintenance and upkeep of essential public infrastructure such as roads, bridges, and communal edifices.
At the helm of each Ernakulam district Panchayat stands an elected President, chosen by the local populace of the respective village. This leadership is complemented by a dedicated assembly of elected councilors and officials, collectively steering the course of these Panchayats. The pivotal role of Panchayats reverberates through the administration and management of rural landscapes within the district, encompassing the vital task of ensuring the timely and responsive addressing of local communities’ needs and concerns.
