The 11th Schedule was added to the Constitution by the 73rd Amendment Act, 1992, which gave constitutional status to Panchayati Raj institutions.

The 11th Schedule contains a list of 29 subjects over which the Panchayats have powers and responsibilities. It essentially outlines the distribution of powers between the State Legislatures and the Panchayats.

The State Legislatures are empowered to endow the Panchayats with such powers and authority as may be necessary to enable them to function as institutions of self-government, particularly in relation to the subjects listed in the 11th Schedule.
