Haryana Seeks Return of IAS Officers as JK Prepares New Chief Secretary
Haryana has requested the Centre to repatriate four IAS officers amid a 20.8% vacancy in its sanctioned strength, worsened by recent retirements and a CBI chargesheet involving five officers. Meanwhile, Jammu and Kashmir is preparing for Sajjan Singh Yadav to succeed retiring Chief Secretary Atal Dulloo, with several senior IAS officers either above or at the same batch as Yadav, reflecting a complex seniority dynamic in the Union Territory's administration.
