The Chhattisgarh government, led by Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai, has implemented a minor administrative reshuffle involving four Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officers from the 2023 batch. The General Administration Department (GAD) issued an official transfer order on Monday, assigning these officers to key field-level roles across the state.
The reshuffle aims to enhance administrative efficiency and provide young officers with firsthand experience in managing sub-divisional affairs, revenue operations, and law and order.
New IAS Postings – 2023 Batch:
- Anupama Anand has been appointed as Sub-Divisional Officer (SDO), Saraipali in Mahasamund district. She was previously serving as Assistant Collector, Raipur.
- M. Bhargava has been posted as SDO, Dongargarh in Rajnandgaon district. He was earlier with the Durg district administration as Assistant Collector.
- Tanmay Khanna will now serve as SDO, Katghora, in Korba district, after his tenure as Assistant Collector, Bilaspur.
- Durga Prasad has been assigned as SDO, Gharghora in Raigarh district, following his previous role as Assistant Collector, Janjgir-Champa.
These postings mark the officers’ transition from assistant roles to independent charge of sub-divisions, as part of their Phase II field training.
