Role of DCs
This is obviously a good attempt to hold an annual conference with the DCs. The Head of the Government and other Cabinet Ministers /Advisers get the opportunity to interact with the field level top functionaries and can realize the situation obtaining in the country. The DCs are responsible for coordinating all activities in the districts, from law and order to agricultural growth, communication, education, health service delivery etc.
I am afraid in future it might not be so easy for them to coordinate, with the empowerment and independence of the police, judiciary and all other departments.
The government will have to issue instructions on the coordinating role of the DCs in the districts and TNOs at the thana level until elected representatives take office.
Moreover, the DCs must have their e-mail facilities to interact with the centre and other departments and they should organise press conference in their areas to inform the public about economic development and other issues.
