In a significant development, Assam Governor Gulab Chand Kataria approved the creation of 79 sub-districts across the state, official sources said.

According to an official notification issued on Tuesday, the sub-divisions, to be known as sub-districts have been created for administrative expediency and to derive maximum synergy, productivity and efficiency at the grassroot level.

It further said that the geographical limits of the sub-districts shall be co-terminus with the boundaries of the legislative constituencies.

The notification read, “For Administrative Expediency, to derive maximum synergy, productivity and efficiency at grass root level and in aid of a good citizen centric administration, the Governor of Assam is pleased to sanction creation of 79 (Seventy nine) Sub Divisions, which shall also be known as Sub-Districts within their respective Administrative Districts as per Annexure-A (enclosed), with immediate effect. The geographical limits of the Sub Divisions/Sub-Districts shall be co-terminus with the boundaries of Legislative Assembly Constituencies.”

On the other hand, the headquarters of the sub-districts will be in its central location or any other appropriate place to be decided by the district commissioners.

Furthermore, the existing civil sub-divisions except those under BTR Districts and Sixth Schedule Districts will cease to exist with immediate effect.
