LGD code
PIN code

Villages in Gundabadi Gram Panchayat

This panchayat was formed when panchayats were reorganised in 2025, and LGD doesn't list its villages yet. Ask at the panchayat office which villages it now covers.

Work and livelihood

Most families in and around Gundabadi mix small-scale farming with livestock, local trade and seasonal wage work. Since July 2026, VB-G RAM G (which replaced MGNREGA) guarantees each household at least 125 days of work a year on village works such as ponds, roads and plantations. The gram panchayat issues the job cards, and wages go straight into bank or post office accounts.

Administration

Under the Rajasthan Panchayati Raj Act, 1994, Gundabadi is run by its elected Sarpanch, the Up-Sarpanch and the ward members. The Gram Sabha, made up of all adult voters, approves the yearly plan and the list of scheme beneficiaries. The Gram Vikas Adhikari (VDO) sent by the Patodi block office keeps the family register, the accounts and the birth and death register.

Every gram panchayat in Rajasthan has to form 5 committees: Administration and Establishment Committee (chaired by the Sarpanch), Finance and Taxation Committee, Development and Production Programmes Committee (farming, animal husbandry, minor irrigation and allied work), Education Committee and Social Services and Social Justice Committee (water supply, health, sanitation). The Gram Sabha has to meet at least twice a year, once in the first and once in the last quarter of the financial year. It goes over the accounts and approves the Gram Panchayat Development Plan (GPDP), which is then uploaded on eGramSwaraj. Any voter of the village can attend and ask questions.
