Legislation regarding the regulation of Participatory Budgeting experiences
_

The legislative assembly of the city-state of Delhi drafted a Bill (the Swaraj Bill) to institutionalize PB; however, the Bill was shelved in 2016 due to constitutional constraints.

Outstanding innovation
​
_

The government of the city-state of Delhi was prevented, because of an institutional tussle with the Central government, from generalizing the pilot PB implemented in a sample of
constituencies in 2015. However, it redirected its resources to develop, from 2016 onwards, a more “thematic”, “actor based” type of PB (Cabannes et Lipietz 2018) in the 1000 schools that come under this government. The “super assemblies” that bring together representatives of the School management committees of all schools in each constituency, are quite innovative; there has been an impact in terms of exam results - recognized officially in 2019, but also (even though this is more difficult to prove) in terms of citizenship building.

OTHER INFORMATION
​​_

​PB in Kerala stopped in 2001 because of the change of government, and in 2006 the new change of government led to attempts at reviving it; however, the paucity of research and media reports on it suggest that PB is certainly not developing in this state;
In Pune, PB is still going on, but it remains limited to a consultation (largely online), and it has been critiqued as a mere formality;
Participatory Budgeting in Delhi stopped in 2016; but the “School managing committee’s super assemblies” put in place in 2016, and still continuing today, can be considered as a form of PB, but a PB limited to school issues, and in which only parent-citizens are involved.
