The State government is likely to take a fresh look soon at the reorganisation of districts taken up by the previous Bharat Rashtra Samiti (BRS) government as it feels that was an erratic exercise lacking any logic.
Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy indicated it during an interaction with reporters recently stating that the government was planning to appoint a judicial commission to suggest to reorganise the existing 33 districts and if needed to reduce the number. The government may go with 17 districts based co-terminus with the 17 Parliamentary seats in Telangana.
Mr. Reddy said the reorganisation should not be done in haste or without proper planning like the previous government did and only a judicial commission would be the right way to give a new shape to the present districts. He had earlier said that some of the districts were created to suit political needs and some to satisfy some people rather than the genuine needs of the State.
