वरीलपैकी कोणती विधाने सत्य आहेत ?
(1) अ, ब आणि क
(2) अ, ब आणि ड
(3) ब, क आणि ड
(4) वरील सर्व

The correct answer is Option B (A, B and D).

Key Points:
• Constitutional Definition (Article 243(b)): Gram Sabha is defined as a body consisting of persons registered in the electoral rolls relating to a village comprised within the area of Panchayat at the village level (Statement A is true).
• Permanent Body: Gram Sabha is a permanent grassroots assembly; it is never dissolved, and its members hold membership by virtue of voter registration rather than election (Statement B is true).
• Statement C is FALSE: A person MUST be registered on the electoral roll of the village to be a member of the Gram Sabha; merely turning 18 without voter enrollment does not grant membership.
• Grassroots Legislature: Gram Sabha functions as the direct deliberative and legislative body at the village level (Statement D is true).
• Thus, statements A, B, and D are true (Option 2).
• Key Takeaway: Gram Sabha (Art 243(b)) is a permanent village legislative body composed of registered voters on the electoral roll.
