Ministry of Home Affairs

Senior AGMUT (Arunachal Pradesh-Goa-Mizoram and Union Territory) cadre bureaucrats posted in Delhi may soon get marching orders as the Ministry of Home Affairs is contemplating a massive bureaucratic overhaul, likely to be undertaken over the coming days. According to reliable sources in the ministry, the action is expected to impact around 40 to 60 IAS, IPS, DANICS (Delhi, Andaman and Nicobar Islands, Lakshadweep, Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu Civil Service) and DANIPS (Delhi, Andaman and Nicobar Islands Police Service) officers in all.

It will largely involve AGMUT cadre officials posted in various central government ministries or in departments under the Delhi government for more than three years. Most of these officers belong to batches between 1990 and 1996. The rejig exercise was widely expected after the change of guards at the helm in the Home Ministry and the Delhi government as affected recently.

Vacancies on Top Positions Reason Behind Bureaucratic Rejig

There has been an air of conjecture among the Delhi – based AGMUT cadre officers as to what prompted the Home Ministry to undertake the bureaucratic reshuffle involving them at such a massive scale. According to a highly-placed source in the ministry, the pressing need to fill the immediate as well as upcoming vacancies at the top level in cadre territories was the most dominant factor behind such move.

According to him, among the significant appointments to be made on priority basis are on the posts of the Chief Secretaries of Arunachal Pradesh, Mizoram, Goa, and Andaman; Apart from it, the crucial post of Principal Secretary (Home) in the Delhi government and Chairperson, New Delhi Municipal Council is also expected to be filled after the reshuffle is undertaken.

Delhi LG Gets Sweeping Power Before Assembly Elections

By
LO Bureau

In a significant move, Delhi has been freed from the control of Union Home Ministry and placed directly under the control of the President of India. It has been done through a presidential promulgation that notifies that Delhi will be subject to direct control of the President of India in place of the Union Home Ministry. According to earlier provisions, Delhi was under the administrative control of the Home Ministry. The order clearly means that Delhi Lieutenant Governor now needs not to send any proposal increasing its power and privileges to Home Ministry for approval.

The move bears immense political significance as it means giving tremendous power to LG at a time when Delhi is headed for assembly elections, likely to be held in January-February next year.

Now, the LG will be empowered to constitute any authority, board, commission or any statutory body as he wishes. Besides, the LG will have free hand in appointing any government officer or ex officio member to such authority, board, commission or any statutory body.
