Solution

The Kerala government made some major changes in the state in 1996.
It gave 40\% of the entire state budget to panchayats so that they could plan and provide for their requirements.
This made it possible for a village to make sure that proper planning was done for water, food, women's development, and education.
In this way water supply schemes were checked, the working of schools and Anganwadis was ensured, and specific problems of the village were taken up.
Health centers were also improved.
In spite of all these efforts, some problems such as shortage of medicines, insufficient hospital beds, not enough doctors still exist, and these are needed to be solved.
