| Summary, etc. |
The role and responsibilities of the office of District Collector (DC) have undergone considerable change since the independence. From enforcement of law and order, and collection of revenue for his administrative unit the office has grown as an important arm for implementing national and state policies on welfare and planned development. Being the chief executive at the district, his status is like a mini-government - all in one at the district level. The enhancement of responsibilities and span of functions over the years has also witnessed a substantial deterioration for the institution of DC. Politicisation of administration, corruption and political interference have largely contributed in bringing disrepute to once famed and sacrosanct office. Sincere efforts are called for from all concerned to restore moral authority and inviolability of this important institution. - Reproduced. |
