Rakash Kumar’s tenure as OSD to Union Minister Giriraj Singh curtailed

The tenure of Rakash Kumar, a Bihar Administrative Service officer, as Officer on Special Duty (OSD) to Giriraj Singh, Minister for Rural Development & Panchayat Raj, has been curtailed. This decision came to light following an order issued by the Department of Personnel and Training on Tuesday, March 26, 2024. The Appointments Committee of the Cabinet has granted approval to the proposal for the curtailment of Kumar’s tenure.

The curtailment of Kumar’s tenure in this role suggests a significant change in the staffing arrangements within the Ministry of Rural Development & Panchayat Raj.
