The village has a strategic position as a spearhead as well as a benchmark in implementing and evaluating the national development integrally. In organizing the village government there is a village device that is one of which is the village consultative Institution (BPD) as an institution that carries out the function of democratic government. This research aims to find clarity about the position of BPD in the implementation of democracy at the village level, and analyzing the implementation of the BPD function in the establishment of village regulation. The study was conducted using a normative juridical method of approach, which prioritizes secondary data as the primary source coupled with primary data as complementary. Data analysis is done qualitatively, which is based on theory of law, concept, doctrine, and legislation. The BPD position is a democratic embodiment in the village, which has joint duty with the village head to plan and establish policies in implementing government and Village development. BPD is also a community representative in this matter can participate in the supervision of development and village governance. BPD as a consultative body derived from the village community, has the function of one of the functions of establishing a village regulation which serves as a representation institution of society. In connection with the function of establishing village regulations, the BPD together with the village head set the village rules in accordance with the aspirations that come from society, but not all aspirations of the community can be set in the form of regulations Villages but have to go through various processes. The main findings of this study suggest that the village’s representative body has not fully mastered its function as a legislative body in the Village Therefore, there must be guidance and mentoring for the establishment of village regulations that can accommodate the aspirations of village people.
