Shah Faesal (IAS:2010:AGMUT) has been selected for appointment as Deputy Secretary in the Ministry of Culture, Delhi for a period of four years. According to an order issued by the Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) on Tuesday (30.08.2022), Mr Faesal, who was recommended for central deputation by the Ministry of Home Affairs, has been appointed to the post for a period of four years under Central Staffing Scheme from the date of taking over charge of the post or until further orders, whichever is earlier.
The government’s move comes nearly four months after it accepted Faesal’s application for withdrawing his resignation and reinstated him in the service in April. Faesal, a 2010 batch IAS topper of erstwhile Jammu and Kashmir cadre, now AGMUT, had resigned from the services in January 2019 and joined politics, which he later quit in August 2020.
