Manish Jain, a seasoned Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officer from the 1994 batch in West Bengal, has been appointed as the State Editor for West Bengal District Gazetters. The announcement came as Jain currently serves as the Principal Secretary in the School Education Department of West Bengal.

In addition to his responsibilities in the School Education Department, Jain has also been entrusted with the additional charge of the Higher Education Department. This demonstrates the state government’s confidence in his administrative acumen and his ability to handle multiple portfolios effectively.
