Detailed Solution

The above statement is True.
The Constitution was amended to strengthen and expand the third tier of democracy. Elections to local government bodies were required under the Constitution. Seats in elected bodies and executive positions were reserved for SC/ST/OBCs. A third of the seats are reserved for women. Local government elections were to be held by the State Election Commission. State governments were requested to share part of their authority and money with local governments. The nature of sharing differs from one state to the next. As a result, the third tier of government has become more powerful. Elections are being held regularly, and these bodies are better equipped financially.
