Here is an essay on ‘District Administration’ especially written for school and college students.

What is District Administration?

District Administration means the management of the task of government so far as it lies within an area legally recognized as a district. According to Khera, “District administration is the total management of public affairs within this unit.” The district is kept under the charge of a district officer—called either Deputy Commissioner or District Collector who acts as the eyes, ears and arms of the State Government. As such D.C.’s task is of pivotal nature. This task is of five kinds viz., Revenue, Magisterial, Judicial, Executive and Development.

District Functionaries:

Deputy Commissioner or District Officer is the linchpin of district administration. He is the head of the district. He is designated as Collector in some of the states like Rajasthan and Madhya Pradesh and Deputy Commissioner in states like Haryana and Punjab.

In some other states, where judicial powers are still vested with the Deputy Commissioner, he is termed as the District Magistrate as well. Some other district officials who head various other departments in the District are Civil Surgeon or District Medical Officer, Executive Engineer, Superintendent of Police, District Forest Officer, District and Sessions Judge, District Education Officer, Dis­trict Agricultural Officer, Assistant Registrar of Cooperative Societies etc., etc. However, Deputy Commissioner is overall responsible for efficient administration of the District.

These function­aries look to him for help, advice and at times orders. Even the citizens run to him for the redress of their grievances. According to the Imperial Gazetteer of India, a Collector of strong and sympathetic character with the gift of insight may gain the strongest hold over the affections and imagination of the peasantry and tales of his sagacity and good deeds will be told in remote village many years after his name has ceased to be borne on the civil list of the province. The position remains the same today depending on dynamism of the Collector/DC and his humane and unbiased approach to the citizens
