THERE was a mini earthquake of sort on Thursday in Delhi’s power corridors, as the Central government in one go undertook a massive administrative reshuffle concerning joint secretary and additional secretary-level officers, by both appointing new officers and shifting departments for others. Among the joint secretary-level appointments, there was a smart division among IAS and non-IAS officers, some of the highlights being the appointment of as many as seven Central Secretariat Service (CSS) officers out of 28 JS-level appointments and also appointing an Indian Police Service officer as joint secretary in the ministry of water resources development. Also, 1987 batch MP cadre IAS Rajesh Kumar Chaturvedi has been appointed as chairman of Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), a post lying vacant for a long time. Here below are 28 new JS appointments and one premature repatriation:
