A revenue division or sub-division is an administrative division of a district in India for the purpose of revenue administration. It comprises multiple tehsils.[1][2] Revenue division is headed by a sub-divisional magistrate (also known as assistant collector, sub collector, or assistant commissioner). In some states, the post is designated as Revenue Divisional Officer (RDO) or Sub-Divisional Officer (Civil).[3][4]
Administrative structure of India
Revenue division or sub-division should not be confused with divisions of a state. States are divided into multiple divisions (headed by divisional commissioners in some states), and these divisions are further divided into districts (headed by district magistrates, collectors, or deputy commissioners).
Odishaedit
Revenue division is not synonymous with sub-division in every Indian state. In Odisha, a division is known as "revenue division" and divisional commissioner as Revenue Divisional Commissioner (RDC), while revenue divisions within a district are strictly known as sub-divisions.[5] The constitution of revenue divisions and the appointment of Revenue Divisional Commissioners is as per the Orissa Revenue Divisional Commissioners Act, 1957.[6]
