Promotion Process Cleared After Court Green Signal

The appointments were part of a long-pending selection process for the 2023 and 2024 IAS vacancies. Legal hurdles had delayed the promotions, but recent decisions by the Supreme Court and High Court paved the way for the final process to move forward.

Out of 55 applicants, 20 officers were shortlisted after scrutiny. The final interviews were conducted on July 23–24 in New Delhi, and four officers were selected based on merit and service record.

Officers Will Serve on Probation Before Final Posting

All four promoted officers will initially serve on probation, and the state government is expected to issue fresh postings for them soon. Their transition from allied services to the IAS is seen as an elevation of administrative talent with proven track records.

Among the newly appointed officers, Dr. Nitesh Sharma has a notable administrative history. He is currently serving as Director (Statistics) in the Chief Minister’s Office (CMO). Before this, he held the position of Director, Program Monitoring in the Chief Secretary’s Office for six years, bringing in-depth experience in governance and statistical planning
