New Delhi (24.07.2026): In a major bureaucratic restructuring, the Narendra Modi Administration has bifurcated the Ministry of Housing & Urban Affairs (MoHUA) to establish a dedicated Department of Capital Development. Senior officer D Thara (IAS: 1995: GJ), who previously served as Additional Secretary in the ministry, has been appointed as its first Secretary.
Under this strategic overhaul, MoHUA will now function through two specialized verticals namely; Department of Capital Development and Department of Urban Development.
The newly created Department of Capital Development is designed to streamline operations specific to the National Capital Region (NCR). It decouples local capital governance from broader national urban policy initiatives.
