They are also required to adopt proper methods to reduce production costs and improve the incomes of farmers so that they feel secure.
They need to strengthen investment in social and technical infrastructure to ensure comprehensive and uniform development of the city.
They are required to properly administer lands zoned for the development of urban, economic and industrial zones.
