Additional Chief Secretary (ACS) of the State’s Finance Department, Dr. Manoj Pant (1991 batch IAS officer), who had been entrusted with the responsibility of irrigation and waterways only a few hours ago, has been appointed the new Chief Secretary of the government of West Bengal.
Ms. Roshni Sen, a 1993-batch IAS officer, was appointed the new ACS of the Water Resources Investigation and Development Department and Project Director ADMI, a department earlier looked after by IAS Mishra.
