Chandigarh, November 18
A 2008-batch IAS officer of the Punjab cadre, Dr Adapa Karthik, today joined the UT Administration on deputation from Punjab. He is yet to be given any department.
The joining of the Punjab cadre officer gains importance as in the last reshuffling done by the UT Adviser, UT cadre officers were given more powers. The new DC, a 2003-batch Haryana cadre officer, who recently joined, was divested of the crucial charge of Commissioner, Excise, Taxation and Labour.
The charge was given to a relatively junior 2010-batch UT cadre officer, Jitender Yadav, who recently joined the UT Administration.
