#Ladakh : Big Move ! Centre Announces Five New Districts In The Union Territory ; Prime Minister Narendra Modi On How It Will Benefit

Union Home Minister Amit Shah announced the creation of five new districts in the Union Territory of Ladakh.

In a post on ‘X’, Shah said in pursuit of Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision to build a developed and prosperous Ladakh, the Union Home Ministry has decided to create the five new districts.

“The new districts, namely Zanskar, Drass, Sham, Nubra and Changthang, will take the benefits meant for the people to their doorsteps by bolstering governance in every nook and cranny,” he said.

Ladakh was made a UT after the erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir was bifurcated into two UTs on August 5, 2019. The other UT is Jammu and Kashmir.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi hailed the creation of five new districts in Ladakh as a step towards better governance and prosperity. Zanskar, Drass, Sham, Nubra, and Changthang will now receive more focused attention, bringing services and opportunities even closer to people, he said, congratulating them.

He said on X, “Creation of five new districts in Ladakh is a step towards better governance and prosperity.”
