Correct Answer:
B. Panchayati Raj
Explanation:
The 73rd Constitutional Amendment Act, 1992, is specifically associated with the Panchayati Raj system, which established a formal three-tier structure for rural local self-government in India. Enacted to provide constitutional status to these institutions, the amendment introduced Part IX and the Eleventh Schedule to the Constitution. This framework mandates a village-level Gram Panchayat, an intermediate-level Panchayat Samiti, and a district-level Zila Parishad. It also ensures social justice through reserved seats for Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, and women, while requiring regular elections every five years to maintain democratic accountability at the grassroots level.
