The Punjab Cabinet, under the leadership of Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, has approved the upgradation of Banur and Hoshiarpur tehsils, marking a significant step towards improving administrative efficiency and public service delivery in the state. The decision was taken during a recent cabinet meeting and is aimed at reducing inconvenience faced by citizens in accessing government services.
Bhagwant Mann Government Approves Upgradation of Banur
Cabinet Minister Hardeep Mundian said that with the upgradation and creation of new tehsils, people will no longer have to travel long distances for revenue-related work, land records, registrations, and other administrative procedures. This move is expected to ease the workload on existing tehsils and ensure faster, more transparent resolution of public issues.
By strengthening the tehsil-level infrastructure
According to officials, the decision will help decentralise governance and bring administrative services closer to the people. By strengthening the tehsil-level infrastructure, the government aims to improve efficiency in handling public grievances and enhance coordination among departments at the local level.
The Mann government has consistently focused on reforms that prioritise public convenience and good governance. The upgradation of Banur and Hoshiarpur tehsils is seen as part of a broader strategy to modernise Punjab’s administrative framework and ensure that government services are accessible, responsive, and citizen-centric.
With this initiative, the state government hopes to improve service delivery, promote transparency, and reinforce public trust in the administration, especially in rapidly growing and densely populated regions of Punjab.
The state government believes that this step will help streamline governance, reduce workload on existing tehsils, and ensure timely resolution of public grievances. Officials say the move aligns with the Mann government’s broader vision of decentralised administration and citizen-friendly governance.
By strengthening local administrative infrastructure, the Punjab government aims to bring governance closer to the people, improve accountability, and enhance the overall efficiency of revenue and public service systems across the state.
