Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta on Saturday said that her government’s vision is to develop mini-secretariats across all the eleven districts of the national capital so that the administration runs smoothly and public issues are addressed in a better manner.

Speaking to reporters on Saturday at the DM office premises in Alipur, Gupta stated that the government is going to align the boundaries of all the eleven administrative (revenue) districts to the Municipal Corporation of Delhi’s (MCD) twelve zones. This step will ensure better administrative coordination and prevent jurisdictional complications or any disorder.
