3. Preparation of second cadre in officer category
Till now there were 2 senior officials in the CM's office, now 3 senior officials will be working
K Kailash Nathan has been in the Chief Minister's office for a long time as Principal Secretary. His administrative and political acumen has benefited the government and was the reason why he was given 11 extensions since Narendra Modi was the Chief Minister of Gujarat. While he recently left the state government and is taking oath as the Governor of Pondicherry next week, the re-entry of Pankaj Joshi and Avantika Singh along with MK Das has already been done with important portfolios.
It is important that Das has served in the CMO office in Vijay Rupani's government. At one time he was in the role of trouble shooter of the government.
Return of 3 officers to Gujarat
There was talk of laxity in the administrative system in the Gujarat government for some time now. Also, there was a delay in decision making. To remove this, 2 high officials Rajeev Topno and T Natarajan from the central government have been brought back to Gujarat. Importantly, both the officers have worked with Narendra Modi in Gujarat and Delhi. So there is a strong hold in the administrative system. The direct benefit of which will be seen in the current government. Also, Jyanti Ravi Rupani was the Health Secretary in the government, while Halmo was working as a secretary in the Pondicherry Auroville Foundation who was also returned to the Gujarat cadre.
Finally exit from Vinod Rao's education
Vinod Rao was working as Secretary in the Education Department for the last 8 years. While the general rule in the administration of the government is 3 year transfers, this was the same officer. Who were not removed from the same place for a long time. On the other hand, in the Harani tragedy, the High Court directed to take action against Vinod Rao. After the order in the High Court, discussions of his suspension were in full swing for some time. Finally he was given a side posting.
The Chief Minister prepared the roadmap for the next 3 years
One of the important reasons for this administrative change is to activate key government departments ahead of the upcoming assembly elections. Also quick decision.
Also the next 10 years team of officers can be prepared. After these transfers, most likely these officers will see the assigned portfolios for the next 3 to 5 years. The direct impact of whose decision will be seen in the development of the state and people oriented works
