Four Haryana government officers posted in the higher education and animal husbandry departments have been appointed to the Indian Administrative Service (IAS) from the non-SCS (Non-State Civil Services) quota.
The selected officers are Dr Vivek Bharti, Dr Harish Kumar Vashishth, Dr Jainder Singh Chhilar, and Dr Brahmjeet Singh Rangi who have been allotted the 2019 cadre.
Dr Bharti and Dr Chhilar were posted in the department of higher education while Dr Vashishth and Dr Rangi were officers in the animal husbandry department.
The spokesperson said the process to fill three vacancies of 2021 will also be started soon.
The selected non-SCS candidates are among those who were shortlisted on the basis of a written examination. This was for the first time that non-SCS officers in Haryana in 2020 had to take a written examination to get appointed to an IAS post against the earlier practice of the state government appointing non-SCS officers to such posts on the basis of their service records.
