Solution

The correct option is A 1, 2 and 3
The Panchayat system allows people to directly participate in the democratic process. It also eases the burden of the centre, and allows for the devolution of powers. The local administrators are accountable to the common people through the Gram Sabhas. However, the people contesting elections to be a member of Panchayat need not be affiliated to any political party.
