About the PESA Act, 1996:

The Panchayats (Extension to Scheduled Areas) Act, 1996 or PESA Act is a law enacted by the Government of India for ensuring self-governance through traditional Gram Sabhas for people living in the Scheduled Areas of India.
It was enacted by Parliament in 1996 and came into force on 24th December 1996.
After the Bhuria Committee recommendations in 1995, Panchayat Extension to Scheduled Areas (PESA) Act 1996 came into existence for ensuring tribal self-rule for people living in scheduled areas of India.
The PESA is considered to be the backbone of tribal legislation in India.
PESA recognises the traditional system of the decision-making process and stands for the peoples’ self-governance.
