Within hours of appointing IAS officer Sudhir Rajpal as Haryana’s new additional chief secretary (home), the state government late on Sunday took back the assignment from him.

Earlier in the day, the 1990-batch IAS officer Sudhir Rajpal was appointed as ACS home while replacing the incumbent home secretary T V S N Prasad, who was appointed as additional chief secretary (revenue), in a bureaucratic reshuffle that saw the Haryana government issuing transfer orders to nine IAS officers.

As per the revised transfer orders, Sudhir Rajpal has been appointed ACS, school education. He will also look after the portfolio of co-operation, and youth empowerment & entrepreneurship. The crucial home department has again been handed over to T V S N Prasad, who will continue to look after the revenue department too.

With this development, the 1988 batch IAS officer T V S N Prasad will look after two key departments – home and revenue – of the state government, apart from the responsibility of chief resident commissioner, Haryana Bhawan in New Delhi.

In the revised transfer order, state chief secretary Sanjeev Kaushal has not mentioned any reason for the changes. The order just read as: “The governor of Haryana is pleased to make the following modifications in state government’s order no.1/102/2023-1SII dated 03.09.2023 with immediate effect.”

T V S N Prasad has been looking after the state home department since August 2022.

Another 1990-batch IAS officer Sumitra Mishra has been appointed additional chief secretary (medical education and research). She will also look after the food, civil supplies and consumer affairs department.

Raja Sekhar Vundru has been appointed additional chief secretary of civil aviation department and housing for all department. Chief Minister’s Principal Secretary V Umashanker will also look after information, public relations, languages and culture department and foreign cooperation department. Principal secretary-rank officer Vijendra Kumar has been appointed to look after agriculture and farmers welfare and sainik and ardh sainik welfare departments, while Rajeev Ranjan will look after the labour department.

A 2000 batch IAS officer, Pankaj Agarwal, has been appointed as commissioner and secretary of social justice, empowerment, welfare of Scheduled Castes and antyodaya (SEWA) department. He will also look after the irrigation and water resources and personnel department. Another officer from the same batch Amneet P Kumar will be commissioner and secretary of women and child development department.
