So the point is that if you are only looking for power and think that you will get away with any of your acts, you are living in some fouls paradize. You will be penalized and you would not be able to have the kind of Ofser Shahi that you intend to enjoy in your service. Those days are over. Now the Mayer or the Chairman of the district is more powerful than a DC. All the department have their own authorities be it Health, Education or Revenue. AC is not the sole sovereign of a subdivision as is portrayed by many.
