LUCKNOW: After passage of the Uttar Pradesh District Planning Committee (Amendment) Bill 2024 in the recently concluded winter session of the state legislature, the state government faces the challenge of empowering the district planning committees with a more substantial and meaningful role in the respective districts.

The new law has empowered the state government to nominate two village 'pradhans' as members of the district planning committees (for one year by rotation).

The state government is now contemplating a move to make the district planning committees more effective.
