The gram panchayats in Maharashtra have been allowed to start holding gram sabhas again by observing social distancing norms and other COVID-19 related guidelines, Rural Development Minister Hasan Mushrif said on Thursday.
An official statement said that with COVID-19 cases going down, the government had last month given permission to resume holding the meetings.
