Avni Vaish to get to NVDA

Outgoing Chief Secretary Avni Vaish is all set to get rehabilitated now. Highly places sources say that he would be made vice chairman of the Narmada Valley Development Authority (NVDA).

There was some suspense on his post-retirement job earlier. Though CM had assured him of a decent job, SC judgment on asking the state to formulate guidelines for appointment in Information Commissions, had come as as stumbling block. But now its clear that Avni is going to NVDA.

Poor IAS officers

 

Unhappy with the recent transfers, two senior IAS officers of Madhya Pradesh decided to meet Chief Minister without knowing the consequences. They got a dressing down from otherwise calm Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan. After listening them patiently, Chief Minister not only managed to convince them that no injustice happened with them but also gave them a lesson that they should not waste their time on petty issues. Poor officers now left with no option then to return empty handed.    

Iqbal to become SIC!

Information commissioner Iqbal Ahmed is all set to be promoted as the State Information Commissioner. According to sources, Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has given his nod for elevating this 1974 batch IAS officer, who is single-handedly handling the State Information Commission. He will succeed P P Tiwari, who completed his tenure last month. In addition to this there are rumors of giving post retirement largesse to present Chief Secretary Avni Vaish.
