520 _athe Sixth Schedule of the Constitution is often referred to as charter of autonomy of a wide magnitude. Its various provisions confer legislative, judicial, executive and financial powers and functions on autonomous councils. Over the years differences have crept into perception regarding powers and expectations. On various occasions the Councils have nursed the expectations about financial and administrative support from the state governments. Whereas, the latter perceive the Councils as parallel government without much of an accountability. The article focuses on the ways these differences can be bridged, like modification in the Sixth Schedule, evaluation and reassessment of the roles and functions of the councils and state governments. - Reproduced.
