Madhya Pradesh Government plans to amend Panchayati Raj Act to prevent financial irregularities. According to NGOs, working in rural areas, only 50 per cent of the nomeny meant for development projects gets utilised in the three tiers of local self-government - gram panchayat at the village level, janpad panchayat at the block level and zilla panchayat at the district level. Corrupt panchayat members and officers pocket the rest.
