They will also review court cases pending with them for over six months.

Divisional Commissioners will also hold monthly review meetings regarding the law and order situation with the IG Range/Commissioner of Police. Deputy Commissioners, and SSP/SP. They will further send a monthly report to the Chief Secretary, mentioning sensitive and flare-up issues like missing persons, major incidents, suspension of mobile internet services, and drone bans during VIP/VVIP visits, etc.

During the procurement season, Divisional Commissioners will supervise the procurement process in Mandis. They will ensure that the Public Distribution System (PDS) functions optimally, and at least two monthly checks will be conducted to ensure PDS shops operate smoothly.

Divisional Commissioners will be responsible for verifying 1% of girdawari entries and reviewing compensation related to girdawari.
