Ummannoor Panchayat

A Panchayat is a collective body of elected representatives responsible for managing the administrative affairs of Panchayat Raj institutions. In Grama Panchayat, it is the primary committee that implements the decisions of the Grama Sabha and handles day-to-day administration. They are responsible for the policy formulation and development planning of the Panchayat. The President is the Chief Executive Authority of the Panchayat and chairs the meetings of the governing body and exercises general administrative supervision over the Panchayat. In the absence of the President, the Vice President discharges these duties. Standing Committees are formed to facilitate easier decision-making in matters such as finance, development, welfare, health, and education.
