The relation between local self-government bodies and state assemblies forms the backbone of democratic governance. Local self government bodies are empowered to manage local affairs, allocate resources, and make decisions that directly impact their respective communities . They underscores the importance of community participation, decentralised governance, and addressing local needs tailored to the specific socio-economic and cultural context of the region. Effective functioning of these local government bodies marks the development of the state. In present days , State governments are not willing to devolve power to the local bodies , which affects or reduces the importance and the role of existing local self government bodies in the country. The objective of my research is to know whether local self government bodies effectively communicate the needs of your community to the state assembly and to find the major challenge that affects the interaction between local government and the State Assembly. Sample frame is 200. Major findings in this research is that local government bodies exist in Tamilnadu where they do not have an effective relation with the state assembly due to no strong bond between the members in local self government bodies and the members of legislative assembly in their constituency. And the major challenge which affects the relation between them are inadequate representation to voice for local issues and political instability. From this research , researcher have concluded that platforms established must be done in an effective manner in all territories within the state to address the local issues to the state assembly. Educating citizens about the role of local self government and their rights , responsibilities and coordination with members in local government can create an effective way to address the local issues to the state assembly.
