Mysore/Mysuru: Currently, two Development Officers have assumed the roles of Zonal Commissioners (Assistant Commissioners) at two Zonal Offices within the Mysuru City Corporation (MCC). Typically, the Zonal Commissioners are of the Karnataka Administrative Service (KAS) grade but here, a lower-rung officer has been given the superior rank.
Out of the nine MCC Zonal Offices, the State Government has appointed seven KAS Officers to oversee their respective jurisdictions. However, for two of these Offices, KAS Officers have not been assigned and therefore, Development Officers are filling in as Zonal Commissioners.
