Detailed Solution

The constitutional status of local governments has helped deepen democracy in India.
In 1992, a major step towards decentralization took place, and through a constitutional amendment, the third tier of democracy, or local self-governments, were made more powerful and effective. This helped deepen democracy in India as the local government works on a grassroots level and the Panchayat of a village is a respected governing institution. People from a village with no basic sense of State or central government could participate in the functioning of the local government and see the progress and working of a democratic government themselves. This created a sense of understanding of democracy in India, even at the local level.
Hence, the statement is true.
