English term or phrase: to provide devolution of powers
Here is the complete sentence:

"Whereas Article ... of the Constitution of India has empowered the Legislature of a State to endow the Panchayats with such powers and authority as may be necessary to enable them to function as institutions of self-Government with provisions of devolution of powers and responsibilities upon the appropriate tier of Panchayats for preparation of plans for economic development and implementation of schemes including ... subjects listed in the ... of India and the ... Act 1997, provide devolution of such powers to Panchayat Raj institutions."

Please help me understand the meaning of the expression "provide devolution of such powers" in the given context.

Do you think this sentence needs improvement?

I look forward to your replies.

Thanks in advance!

ऐसे अधिकारों के अन्तरण का अधिकार


Explanation:
"...enable them to function as institutions of self-Government with provisions of devolution of powers and responsibilities upon the appropriate tier of Panchayats..."

The sentence could be simplified as under:

...Panchayats can function as Self-Government entities. The Legislature can delegate powers and responsibilities to the Panchayat so that the Panchayat itself can formulate and implement the economic development plans....While delegating such powers to the Panchayat, the Legislature can also decide the level (office) of the Panchayat to which such delegation will go to (or vest in - who, at what level in the Panchayat, can do what)

क्षमताओं के हस्तान्तरण का प्रावधान


Explanation:
According to the Constitution of India, the power of government should be decentralized and handed over such powers step-by-step to the local bodies at gtass root level - this is the summery.

Now fer the sentence "enable them to function as institutions of self-Government with provisions of devolution of powers and responsibilities upon the appropriate tier of Panchayats..." becomes
"पंचायत के उपयुक्त स्तर पर क्षमता तथा दायित्व हस्तान्तरण का प्रावधान रखकर उनको स्वयं-सरकारी संस्था के तौर पर काम करने के लिए सक्षम किया गया ।"

अधिकार संक्रमण


Explanation:
Act 1997, provide devolution of such powers to Panchayat Raj
१९९७ का कानून पंचायती राज को ऐसे अधिकार संक्रमित करता हैं.

In given context the power has moved to down stream. It is not passed on to equal platform. Transfer of power is अधिकारों का हस्तांतरण. So अधिकारों का संक्रमण should be correct translation.

Example sentence(s):
  • घटना पुनराविलोकन आयोग नें राज्यों को, केंद्रीय सुची के कुछ विषयों पर अधिकार संक्रमित किए हैं।
