Minister for Municipal Administration & Urban Development K.T. Rama Rao launched the GHMC’s ward office system from Kacheguda on June 16, terming it as a milestone in the city’s administrative reforms.
Mr. Rama Rao assured necessary arrangements for their efficient management and coordination to ensure optimal functioning of the ward offices. He shared plans to attach additional officers from departments such as Health and Police to the ward-level governance in future, to ensure comprehensive service delivery.
Acknowledging the existing dearth of bureaucracy at the ward level, he sought to highlight how the ward office system bridges the gap and improves local governance. There might be initial hiccups, but the government is committed to ensure smooth functioning of the system, he said.
