Retired IAS officer IP Gautam (IAS:1986:GJ) has been appointed as the new Chairman of the Sabarmati Riverfront Development Corporation Limited (SRFDCL) for a tenure of two years. He took charge on Tuesday, replacing Keshav Varma (IAS:1976:GJ), who led the SRFDCL for nearly five years.
Notably, the Sabarmati Riverfront was developed while he was the Ahmedabad Municipal Commissioner for over five years, from 2006 to 2011. Gautam’s new role is also said to be crucial looking at the important expansion phases of the riverfront that will touch Gandhinagar.
After serving as Municipal Commissioner, Gautam was appointed as the Principal Secretary for the state’s Urban Development, Housing, Ports, and Transport departments. Before this appointment, he was a member of the Lokpal of India in Delhi for over four years until April 2023.
