The Union Budget 2016-17 announced the Rashtriya Gram Swaraj Abhiyan (RGSA) for building capabilities of Panchayati Raj Institutions to deliver on SDGs. Key local development challenges faced by the country viz. poverty, public health, nutrition, education, gender, sanitation, drinking water, livelihood generation etc are in sync with SDGs and fall within the realm of Panchayats. The Panchayats have therefore been designated as a key player for implementation of the United Nations SDGs to be achieved by 2030 .
