The tenure of Utpal Kumar Singh (Retd IAS: 1986: UD) as the Secretary-General of the Lok Sabha and Lok Sabha Secretariat has been extended for an additional year, effective from December 1, 2024. With this extension, Singh will complete a remarkable five-year tenure in the coveted role on November 30, 2025.

Singh, who previously served as the Chief Secretary of Uttarakhand, was appointed to the prestigious position on a contract basis on November 30, 2020. His initial term was set for one year, ending November 30, 2021, but due to successive extensions, he has continued to serve in this vital role. The extension underscores his contribution and the confidence placed in his leadership in managing the functions of the Lok Sabha Secretariat.

Before Singh, Snehlata Shrivastava (Retd IAS: 1982: MP) served as Secretary-General until November 30, 2020. Shrivastava, who was widely regarded for her close association with the late Arun Jaitley, had been seen as his handpicked successor for the role.

Singh’s tenure as Secretary-General has been marked by his strong leadership and stewardship of the Secretariat, ensuring the smooth functioning of the Lok Sabha and strengthening the parliamentary processes.
