In a statement reported by The Tribune, Anurag emphasized that existing administrative units must be reinforced before any new districts are formed.
Anurag, speaking to The Tribune, urged authorities to focus on bolstering current administrative structures before considering the creation of additional districts. He highlighted that strengthening existing units can improve governance efficiency and resource allocation.
The statement, made during a recent interview, cautioned against the premature division of territories without first addressing operational gaps in the present system. Anurag argued that new districts often strain limited budgets and administrative capacity if foundational issues remain unresolved.
He concluded that a systematic review of existing units, followed by targeted capacity‑building measures, should precede any decision to carve out new districts. This approach, he said, would ensure sustainable development and better public service delivery.
The Tribune’s coverage reflects growing debate over district reorganisation across several states, where political leaders and bureaucrats weigh the benefits of administrative expansion against fiscal prudence.
