Senior IAS officer Ashok Khema is once again in News. This time, he is requesting to government for a posting with a reason. He has sought a posting as head of the State Vigilance Department in Haryana.

Khemka, who is posted as additional chief secretary in archives department, wrote a letter to Haryana Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar on January 23, seeking the posting. The Chief Minister’s Office, so far, has not reacted to it.

He is posted in archives department since January 9, 2023. Through his letter, he has conveyed that he has barely eight minutes of work in a day in the archives department while his annual salary is Rs 40 lakh.

Citing the Supreme Court’s 1987 judgment in the case of ‘PK Chinnasamy vs Government of Tamil Nadu and Others’, Khemka said that the apex court had held that “a Public Officer should be given posting and work commensurate to his status”.

Khemka, who is due to retire from service in the year 2025, has apprised Khattar that he had “always been at the forefront in the fight against corruption” and he has also “sacrificed his service career to root out the cancer of corruption”.
