Chennai: In a minor reshuffle of the Indian Administrative Service (IAS) cadre, the Tamil Nadu government on Thursday transferred seven senior officials, appointing P Sri Venkata Priya as the new Secretary of the Tamil Nadu State Election Commission (TNSEC).

This move marks a significant shift in the administrative leadership of the state’s election commission ahead of crucial local body governance activities.

  • Banoth Mrugender Lal has been posted as Deputy Secretary in the Department of Cooperation, Food and Civil Supplies.

Administrative Continuity and Strategic Reassignments

While the reshuffle has been termed “minor,” it reflects the government’s ongoing efforts to maintain administrative momentum and realign bureaucratic responsibilities to ensure efficiency in key departments.

All officials are expected to assume their new roles with immediate effect, as per the government directive.
