Dear Student,
At the local level it is possible for the people to directly participate in decision making. This helps to inculcate a habit of democratic participation. Local government is the best way to realise one important principle of democracy, namely local self-government.Hence,In 1993, two constitutional amendment Acts, were passed to recognise local self-government at the grass-root level. 73rd amendment made the following provisions:
 The reservation of seats has been made for SCs, STs, OBCs and women.Reservation for women at panchayats has ensured the participation of women in local bodies.Due to this reservation, a number of women have occupied even the position of Sarpanch and Adhyaksha.Hence correct option is i and ii
Regards
