Government

The purpose of Village Development Committees is to organise village people structurally at a local level and creating a partnership between the community and the public sector for improved service delivery system. A VDC has a status as an autonomous institution and authority for interacting with the more centralised institutions of governance in Nepal. In doing so, the VDC gives village people an element of control and responsibility in development, and also ensures proper utilization and distribution of state funds and a greater interaction between government officials, NGOs and agencies. The village development committees within a given area will discuss education, water supply, basic health, sanitation and income and will also monitor and record progress which is displayed in census data.[2]

In VDCs there is one elected chief, usually elected with over an 80% majority. From each ward, there is also a chief that is elected along with these there are also four members elected or nominated.[2]

gollark: So I want to actually learn electronics hardware stuff and can probably get relevant items for that as it is Christmas soon. What should I get? I'm slightly aware I could use a soldering iron and whatever, but not of specifics (and also where to get it). I'm vaguely interested in microcontrollers and wireless communication things.
gollark: They're used in a lot of places where there's no fixed line networking available, as far as I know.
gollark: I should create a random folder filled with a few thousand files so I can seem productive.
gollark: I guess the advantage is that it has GPIO pins? But you can... buy microcontrollers, very cheaply.
gollark: "Recent" meaning "made within about 15 years". Excluding really bad atoms I guess.
