Jaipur: Head of Secretary Niranjan Kumar Arya will retire in January next year.
The Congress Government, who has entered its crucial fourth year in the office, must find a replacement soon.
It still has to be seen if the main minister will follow the principle of seniority or will adopt the policy of choosing and choosing as it was done in the case of Arya, which was appointed to replace 10 IAS officers in an unprecedented step.
The decision has created dissatisfaction between bureaucrats and many senior officers who choose central deputation.
According to sources, Batch 1985 officers at this time for representatives at the center of Usha Sharma is a strong competitor.
He is currently a secretary in the Department of Youth Affairs and is one of the senior officers of the country cadre.
But Sharma has come out of the country for a long time and whether he is interested in returning to the state at this point is the moot point.
Other front runners are ACS Subodh Agarwal and Sudanshu pants.
Although Agarwal was given a post out of the secretariat after the appointment of Arya to the top position for a short time, he rose again and now holds an important department of mining, petroleum and energy.
He was able to lift a ban on sand mining by the Supreme Court and handling the coal crisis recently deftly.
He was also responsible for the ambitious Barmer Barmer refinery project.
Furthermore, in the ranks of the current principal Arya is Batchmate (1989) Rohit Kumar Singh.
Rohit Kumar Singh who has made a sign as a medical ACS and health during the Corona crisis that designed the famous ‘Bhilwara’ model of cruel detention is currently in central deputation as an additional cultural secretary.
Whether Singh and his wife Ips Neena Singh are in the center deputation, he will not return to the country.
If seniority is given a shake, then there is an opportunity for Sudhansh’s pants.
Pants have made important posts under the Congress and currently ACS (PHED).
He is now assigned to the implementation of the Jeevan Jeevan mission which is ambitious (JJM) that is in accordance with the top priority.
