Maharashtra Chief Secretary Nitin Kareer (IAS: 1988: MH) was on Saturday given an extension for three months. The central government has approved a proposal of the state government to grant the extension to the senior Indian Administrative Services (IAS) officer from April 1 to June 30. Kareer had succeeded senior bureaucrat Manoj Saunik for the top post in December last year. He was due for retirement on 31 March.
