Punjab Local Government Act 2019
 

In 2019, PTI led punjab government reinstated the local government structure with some major critical reorientation in it's previous structure. According to the proposed legislation, the new local government setup will be a completely autonomous governing body elected and constituted at city, Tehsil and village levels. All the municipal administration powers are conferred to said elective councils with directly elected heads of local governments. I would like to know about the fate of the once glorious PAS after such arrangements, whose Deputy Commissioners at district levels will be washed out of their administrative powers. I have also read about Cheif Officer designated directly under Tehsil Council responsible for the entire administration of its concerned Tehsil. After such radical rearrangements, what will be the case with Assistant Commissioners? Please clarify.
