The Odisha Zilla Parishad is considering a reorganisation of its administrative zones following the recent merger of urban areas within the state. The move aims to align jurisdictional boundaries with the new urban layout.
The Zilla Parishad, which oversees rural governance in Odisha, said it is examining the need to redraw zone boundaries after several urban localities were merged into larger municipal corporations.\n\nOfficials stated that the exercise is intended to ensure effective administration and resource distribution. No final decision has been taken, and the matter is expected to be discussed in the upcoming parishad meeting.\n\nThe reorganisation, if approved, would affect the allocation of seats and responsibilities among the various zones.
