Special secretary (Revenue) Gurrala Sreenivasulu is the latest officer who has moved an application for voluntary retirement to chief secretary Durga Shankar Mishra and additional chief secretary (Appointment) Devesh Chaturvedi .

Vidya Bhusan, a 2008-batch IAS officer posted as managing director of Purvanchal Vidyut Vitran Nigam, opted for voluntary retirement on September 5. In April, his wife, Indian Police Service (IPS) officer Alankrita Singh, was suspended by the state government on the charge of negligence in duty and indiscipline.

In August, three IAS officers Renuka Kumar (1987 batch), Juthika Patankar (1988 batch), and Vikas Gothalwal (2003 batch) opted for voluntary retirement. Gothalwal, Sreenivasulu, and Bhusan have sought voluntary retirement on health grounds.

Uttar Pradesh IAS Association president RK Tiwari said, “IAS officers opting for voluntary retirement are not limited to Uttar Pradesh but in other states, too, several IAS officers have taken voluntary retirement. It’s the personal decision of the officer to move out of the service for better options in the private sector. Voluntary retirement is not an uncommon phenomenon as earlier in U.P. some IAS officers have opted for voluntary retirement and serve on various posts in the private sector.”
