Jharkhand Governor Administers Oath to Four New State Information CommissionersPreviousNext

Jharkhand Governor Santosh Kumar Gangwar administered the oath of office and secrecy to four newly appointed state information commissioners—Anuj Kumar Sinha, Tanuj Khatri, Amulya Neeraj Khalkho, and Shivpujan Pathak—at Lok Bhavan in Ranchi. Chief Minister Hemant Soren attended the ceremony and congratulated the appointees. The state information commission is now fully functional after a five-year gap following the expiration of the previous chief information commissioner's tenure in 2019 and the acting commissioner's term in 2020.
