This paper is based on document research of the history of the region and adopted policies, together with field research on the work of councils and local government units, as well as policy results. Field research focuses on local panchayats in cities where government offices are located and where the two communities reside. Field interviews will also play a central role in collecting data on many and diverse opinions and perspectives. We would also be interested in contacting faculty and accessing research materials at the Panchayati Raj Institutions which are of direct relevance to this research. The research will be undertaken in three stages; a comprehensive literature review, semi-structured interviews, and cluster analysis.
