Uttarakhand Govt defers formation of new districts

Dehradun, November 6
The Uttarakhand Government has deferred the formation of four new districts in the poll-bound hill state and appointed a committee headed by the Chief Secretary to study the matter further.
“The report on the formation of four new districts will be submitted to the government shortly,” Chief Secretary Subhash Kumar told mediapersons after a Cabinet meeting presided over by Chief Minister BC Khanduri here yesterday.
Former CM Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank, in his Independence Day speech, had announced the formation of the four new districts of Ranikhet, Didihaat, Kotdwar and Yamunotri.
In another development, the government has decided to regularise the services of 24,000 contractual employees provided they have completed 10 years of service in their respective departments.
