Senior Indian Information Service officer Dhiraj Singh (IIS:1995) was on Thursday (08.08.2024) appointed to the post of Director, Film and Television Institute of India (FTII), Pune on a deputation basis for a period of five years. Singh succeeds Sandeep Shahare to the post.
Presently, Singh is serving as Additional Director General at the Press Information Bureau, where he oversees media and communication for the Prime Minister’s Office.
An alumnus of Allahabad University and Jawaharlal Nehru University, Singh is considered to be one of the brightest and go getter officers. This could be the reason that he has been entrusted with such a coveted position for the incumbent dispensation.
