💨 Abstract

Haryana has established its first Balika Panchayat in Fatehabad's Barseen village, empowering young girls aged 11-21. Formed through a voting process, the Balika Panchayat aims to raise awareness about rights, safety, nutrition, and sanitation. While not having constitutional or financial power, they can participate in Gram Sabha meetings and present suggestions.
