The State government is gearing up to introduce ward-level governance for taking administration to the doorstep of people in urban local bodies.
It has accordingly decided to introduce the new system in the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation to begin with, and expand it to other local bodies subsequently. Municipal Administration Minister K.T. Rama Rao directed the officials concerned to work out modalities for introducing the new system of governance before this month-end.
He said the introduction of new system would ensure that residents need not go the circle or zonal offices of the corporation for redressal of their grievances. They could instead register their complaints/suggestions for perusal of the authorities concerned at the ward-level itself.
