Stating this here, a spokesman for the CM's office said the decision had been taken in public interest to ensure quick dispensation of public services/utilities to people of nearby villages and to percolate benefits of policies and programmes of the state government.

The CM has also directed the secretary, local government, to issue a final notification in this regard under sections 4 and 5 of the Municipal Act, 1911.
