Hindustan Times Delhi
|August 31, 2025
Delhi chief minister Rekha Gupta on Saturday announced a major administrative reform under which all revenue district boundaries will be realigned with the 12 zones of the Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD).
The move, she said, is aimed at strengthening coordination between departments, preventing jurisdictional disputes, and ensuring faster resolution of citizens’ grievances.
Calling it a significant step towards good governance, Gupta said, “Transparency will increase; citizens’ issues will be addressed effectively and within time.”
The announcement came while she inaugurated the newly constructed District Development Committee (DDC) chairman’s office at the district magistrate (DM) complex in Alipur.
