Himachal Pradesh Forms Commission to Review Administrative Unit Reorganisation
The Himachal Pradesh government has formed a commission to review the reorganisation of administrative units such as districts, subdivisions, and tehsils. The commission, headquartered in Shimla and functioning for six months, will assess the need for creating, merging, or bifurcating units based on factors like population, geography, and administrative efficiency. It will consult stakeholders and evaluate financial implications before submitting recommendations ahead of the 2027 Assembly elections. The issue is politically sensitive, especially regarding the large Kangra district.
