Dy. Commissioner is more powerful a position than District Coordination Officer because DC serve as the district administrative head as well as of the magistracy and revenue collection. Difference between DC and DCO: After the Devolution Plan 2001 the slot of DC was changed into DCO and the District Officer was left with the powers of Coordination only. The District Nazim was made the administrative head of his district, in a nutshell, the powerful District officer of the yore lost all his authority to the District Nazim even District Nazim had to write the ACRs of the DCO and District Police Officer. Judiciary was made independent from the District Administration. Though DCO was made the Principal Acounting Officer but owing to the lost of his status, that's not something to be proud of. The rest is history. Regards
