Rajasthan to get 19 new districts, BJP says decision to meet 'political needs'

The Rajasthan government has announced that it will create 19 new districts and three more divisional headquarters to serve the needs of people who live far away from the divisional headquarters.

CM Ashok Gehlot also announced Rs 2,000 crore for the development of infrastructure for them.

Gehlot made the announcement in the Rajasthan assembly, which also passed the 2023-24 Budget with a voice vote.

The move which comes months ahead of the assembly election this year has received criticism from the BJP, which alleged the real intention behind the decision by the Ashok Gehlot government is to meet 'personal political needs.'

This is the first time since 2008 that new districts are being carved out, taking the number of districts to 50 in the state.
