Heading the Food and Warehousing Sectors

  • Director of the Food Department.

His extensive involvement in these key departments has been instrumental in managing the state’s food distribution and storage infrastructure.

Since his tenure as the Collector of Raigarh, Mr. Goyal had expressed interest in a deputation posting. That wish has now been fulfilled with his appointment as Census Director — a significant central deputation role.

Mr. Goyal has previously served as Collector in multiple districts, gaining grassroots administrative experience:

  • Bemetara
  • Mahasamund
  • Baloda Bazar
  • Raigarh

Other Key Positions Held

Over his career, Mr. Goyal has also taken up important assignments such as:

  • Inspector General (IG) Registration
  • Director of Industries
  • Managing Director of CGMSC (Chhattisgarh Medical Services Corporation)

An IAS Officer with Strong Roots in Public Service

Mr. Kartikeya Goyal is a 2010 batch IAS officer of the Chhattisgarh cadre. He was born on July 3, 1980, in Uttar Pradesh. However, due to his father’s posting, he completed his education in Andhra Pradesh.

Administrative Legacy

His father, a distinguished IAS officer of the Andhra Pradesh cadre, also served as the Chief Secretary of Andhra Pradesh — making public service a legacy in the Goyal family.
