General201120 sections

This Act establishes District Planning Committees in every district of Arunachal Pradesh to combine development plans created by local Panchayats and Municipalities into a single, comprehensive district strategy. It mandates that these committees include elected local representatives and key government officials, with a specific focus on balancing rural and urban needs. The legislation matters because it ensures that every district acts as a unified entity for planning and executing growth, preventing fragmentation in governance and allowing for more efficient resource distribution between rural and urban areas within the state.
