Lobbying for PCC HoF intensifies in Raj

Jaipur: With just a few days left for the retirement of Dr DN Pandey, the lobbying for the appointment on the post PCCF HoFF has intensified.

In seniority, Munish Garg is second after Pandey and therefore his claim to become HoFF is strong but Garg is facing challenge from Arindam Tomar, who is currently Chief Wildlife Warden. It is Tomar’s second term as Chief Wildlife Warden.

After Tomar, the next officer in seniority is Arijit Banerjee and his chances are bright. After Pandey’s retirement, one post of PCCF will fall vacant. In such a situation, APCCF Pawan Upadhyay will become PCCF. Arindam Tomar is considered close to forest minister Hemram Choudhary. Tomar also has a good tuning with the present HoFF D N Pandey.
