Raman Kumar (IAS:2009:BH), currently serving as the Private Secretary to Giriraj Singh, Minister for Rural Development and Panchayati Raj in the Ministry of Panchayati Raj, has undergone a change in his tenure. A recent order issued by the Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) on Wednesday, the 18th of October 2023, reveals that the Appointments Committee of the Cabinet has approved his appointment as Private Secretary to Giriraj Singh in the Ministry of Rural Development. This appointment has been made at the Director level.
The terms of this appointment extend up to the 28th of November 2026. This duration aligns with the balance period of his original tenure, which was for five years as Private Secretary. However, it remains co-terminus with the Minister or until he ceases to function as the Private Secretary to the Minister, or until further orders, depending on which occurs earlier.
