Chandigarh, October 19
Following in the footsteps of neighbouring Punjab, Haryana today appointed retired bureaucrat DS Dhesi as Chief Principal Secretary to the Chief Minister, a development that will change power equations within the Chief Minister’s Office (CMO).
Dhesi, who remained state’s Chief Secretary for over four years having retired on June 30, 2019, yesterday resigned as the Chairman of the Haryana Electricity Regulatory Commission (HERC) to take up the new assignment.
Though the terms of Dhesi’s appointment are yet to be made public, it is expected that like his Punjab counterpart Suresh Kumar, he would be the “super boss” in the CMO with all files meant for CM Manohar Lal Khattar being routed through him.
