Solution
Two Regulatory or General Administrative-functions of a Village Panchayat are:
- Registration of births, deaths and marriages: The village Panchayat keeps crucial public data like births, deaths, and weddings in the community. This helps to keep an accurate record of the village population and aids in the successful planning of welfare and development operations.
- Maintenance of watch and ward service (Chowkidars, etc.): The Panchayat is responsible for maintaining peace and order in the village by employing watchmen or chowkidars. These individuals contribute to the village’s safety, preventing thefts and crimes, and promoting peace and security among the villagers.
