Madhya Pradesh has implemented the Panchayats Extension to Scheduled Areas (PESA) Act in the state.
It aims to preserve the tribal population from exploitation with the active involvement of the Gram Sabhas.
PESA Act will also allow the gram panchayats to decide matters that are related to minor forest produce, land, and small water bodies along with an implementation of government schemes.
It will also maintain records of the migrant laborers for curbing the bonded labour in these scheduled areas.
