It highlights the weak points in the chain linking panchayats to rural health care delivery. In an environment where the functional effectiveness of statutory village bodies seems to be low, particularly in the crucial area of primary health, new measures have to be taken up to redress the situation. The paradox of successful decentralisation involves, among other things, top-down initiatives for bottom-up implementation. - Reproduced.  aHealth services - India - Himachal Pradesh  aPanchayat - India - Himachal Pradesh  aPanchayat  aSociological Bulletin  aN  a74835  c74835d74835  00104070aIIPAbIIPAd2018-07-19hVolume no: 56, Issue no: 1pAR75295r2018-07-19w2018-07-19yAR
