BPublic order in panchayat areas ✓ Correct

DPoverty alleviation programmes
Correct answer: (B) Public order in panchayat areas — Public order in panchayat areas is not a function of Panchayati Raj Institutions.
Explanation
★Public order in panchayat areas is not a function of Panchayati Raj Institutions.
★Public order is a State subject under the State List, handled by the state government and police.
★It is not among the subjects devolved to panchayats in the Eleventh Schedule.
★Animal husbandry, dairying and poultry are listed functions of panchayats.
★Roads, culverts, bridges and other means of communication are also panchayat functions.
★Poverty alleviation programmes are a core developmental function of panchayats.
★So only public order falls outside the panchayat's functions.
