Chief Minister B S Yediyurappa on June 3 had directed authorities to identify state level government offices to be shifted from the city to Suvarna Vidhana Soudha in Belagavi within a month and execute it, with an aim to address the regional imbalance.
And on June 30 a list of 24 such offices will now be shifted to the Suvarna Vidhan Soudha as per the new order.
The government has ordered the relocation of a total of offices, including the office of the Department of Tourism, senior land science cooperatives auditing, handloom textiles, the office of the Joint Director, various corporations and the Dharwad division office of the Karnataka Irrigation Corporation.
It has been long-standing demand of the people of north Karnataka to shift some government offices to Suvarna Vidhana Soudha in Belagavi.
Yet another Govt order that will go unaccounted.
BSY needs to whip the authority and perosnally make this as his #1 agenda to deliver results. Bangalore is too cozy and power center for officials to relocate.
All authorities must expedite the shifting of all’listed offices as soon as possible
