South Asian Journal of Socio-Political StudiesSummary: The good governance at the grassroots and decentralized planning process envisages cordial relationship between Officials and elected representatives of the panchayats. The present paper seeks to examine the relationship between the officials and the elected representatives in the panchayats through variables such as nature of relationship, co-operation & coordination. The paper is based on large number of interviews with Officials, elected representatives and citizens of all the three tiers of Karnataka panchayats. Based on the analysis, the paper outlines suggestions for better relations and subordination of officials to elected representatives. It is necessary for the officials and the panchayat members to maintain a cordial relationship for the successful functioning of the panchayat. A positive relationship between these two will have a direct bearing on bridging the gap between the role expectation and the role performance of PRIs in the development of rural areas. An attempt has been made in this paper to explore the nature of relationship with special reference to GP Secretaries and Non-Officials like panchayat members and MLAs. For the purpose of this study, all the members of four Gram Panchayats and the Secretaries were interviewed. At the TP & ZP level, Adhyaksha and Upadhyaksha of two Taluk Panchayats, two EOs, four PEOs, Adhyaksha and Upadhyaksha of ZP and CEO were interviewed. The inferences are also drawn about the nature of relationship between the officials and the non-officials at TP and ZP level.- Reproduced
