Awaiting IAS transfer list, officials hoping for the best!

Jaipur: The bureaucracy of Rajasthan is eagerly waiting for the next IAS transfer list. In reality, this wait started right after the new government was formed in Delhi, but even though fifteen days have passed, the whereabouts of the transfer is list are unknown. Sources reveal that homework is continuously being done on the list, but nothing is getting finalised. Sources further reveal that major changes are to happen to ACS, Principal Secretary, and Secretary rank officer while several HODs and Collectors would also be changed.

However, it does not seem probable that Finance will undergo any changes just yet, owing to the upcoming budget.

It is being said that one of the reasons why the list is not getting finalised, is the issue of nonapproval on various names at the concerned level, even though several meetings have happened on this aspect. Sources reveal that the issue is stuck on about half a dozen names. Furthermore, various speculations are being made regarding the CM’s Delhi visit followed by the Chief Secretary’s sudden visit to the National Capital.

Notably, even after approval regarding relieving the state’s Chief Electoral Officer and with the notification by the Election Commission regarding the new CEO, it has been two days, and yet the State Government has not issued orders in this regard. This issue is also concerned with the transfer list.

Right from the Secretariat, to Departments and Collectors are in a state of confusion regarding the list and it is also being said that in the absence of the list getting finalised, it can be stalled for some time.
