New Delhi, Dec 26
Manipur is going through a tumultous phase with State Chief Secretary Vineet Joshi (IAS: 1992: MN) being shifted to Delhi as Higher Education Secretary at the Centre, which has aggravated administrative uncertainty in the State. It may continue till the Centre announces the repatriation of a senior IAS officer serving in Government of India to take over as the new CS.
There are at least three senior IAS officers who are serving at the Centre being considered for the challenging assignment. This is where the Government's dilemma lies.
The three senior IAS officers are Prashant Kumar Singh (IAS: 1993: MN), Rajesh Agarwal (IAS: 1994: MN) and Vivek Kumar Dewangan (IAS: 1993: MN).
It may also be underlined two key developments took place simultaneously; one, former Union Home Secretary was appointed as Governor and second, the serving Chief Secretary Vineet Joshi got a sigh of relief after being moved to the Centre.
