Sajjan Singh Yadav, a 1995-batch AGMUT cadre IAS officer, is set to become Jammu and Kashmir's Chief Secretary on November 1, succeeding Atal Dulloo. Several senior IAS officers, including two 1992-batch officials, currently hold higher ranks in the Union Territory's administration, creating a unique seniority dynamic. Two senior officers were recently transferred to Delhi. Separately, Haryana has requested the Centre to repatriate four IAS officers amid a shortage of personnel, highlighting administrative challenges in both regions.
