About LOKPANCHAYAT:
LOKPANCHAYAT is a regd. body of Distt Sirsa and had been active since 1987. It is a non-political, non-religious, secular, non-factional organization working in this area. Unlike infamous Khap Panchayats of South-East Haryana, LOKPANCHAYAT works for social justice and aims at resolving various disputes at village level. Apart from resolving disputes LOKPANCHAYAT also works towards consolidated development of the area, maintaining peace and harmony, campaigning against female foeticide, discouraging the youth to do drugs and tries to discourage other social evils like dowry and overspending by the rich on weddings etc. LOKPANCHAYAT tries to imbibe rational thinking in the society.
In all these years Lokpanchayat had successfully resolved many a disputes amicably even though it does not have any executive powers. LOKPANCHAYAT members come from all walks of life that includes highly educated members, farmers, businessmen, artisans, retired govt. servants, teachers etc, yet LOKPANCHAYAT maintains a laid back attitude and keeps all its activities down to earth and without pomp and show.
The sole purpose of this organization is to work for the betterment of the society in a no-frills style that is why most of the meetings of the LOKPANCHAYAT are conducting in a very basic way. Today is 24th Annual Seminar of LOKPANCHAYAT
