PTI | March 28, 2012



The Arunachal Pradesh government was contemplating to cover all districts including all administrative headquarters under the e-governance project for effective administration, the assembly was informed today.

"The state government has evolved an administrative Reform Policy to cover all administrative centers under e-governance in the 12th Five Year Plan to have better accessibility," Chief Minister Nabam Tuki said in response to a supplementary question raised by Trinamool Congress member Laeta Umbrey during question hour.

Tuki said in the past three years the state government approved creation of one district, 18 administrative circles and one sub-division with total financial implication of Rs 18.72 crore.

Umbrey had alleged that creation of new districts including administrative centers were made on political interest without looking at the genuine aspect involving a large chunk of money.

Tuki said the new districts and administrative centers were approved on the basis of demands of the local people and purely on need-basis.

"Creation of administrative headquarters is for extension of services to the people?s doorsteps but not on political compulsion," Tuki clarified.

Replying to Umbrey's suggestion for a moratorium of 20 years for creation of new districts, Tuki said districts would increase with demands of the people.

To a question by Congress MLA Kumsi Sidisow on regularization of services of local people working with the NEEPCO, Tuki said he had talked to the power corporation and the process was under progress.
