In a significant move, the Centre has appointed Sushil Kumar Singh, an officer from the Indian Railway Service of Mechanical Engineering (IRSME) of the 1993 batch, as the Chairman of Deendayal Port Trust in Kandla, Gujarat. One of the largest state-owned ports in the country, Deendayal Port Trust will be under Singh’s leadership until his superannuation in January 2027.
Singh has succeeded SK Mehta, a forest service officer from the Gujarat cadre, who has returned to his parent cadre after completing his central deputation.
The Centre has also effected changes at the joint secretary level, involving officers from various cadres and services.
Nitin Kumar Yadav, an officer from the Haryana cadre, has been appointed as the Joint Secretary in the Department of Commerce.
Pankaj Yadav, also from the Haryana cadre, has been named the Joint Secretary in the Department of Rural Development.
Five additional officers from various All India Services have been appointed to different departments and ministries of the Union Government, including the Ministry of Steel.
These administrative reshuffles and appointments are part of the Centre’s ongoing efforts to streamline governance and ensure efficient administration across various domains.

The appointments of experienced and capable officers like Sushil Kumar Singh and the reshuffling of joint secretaries aim to bring fresh perspectives, expertise, and renewed energy to their respective domains.
By strategically allocating human resources, the Centre aims to optimize the utilization of talent and skills, thereby enhancing the overall efficiency and productivity of administrative bodies.
Furthermore, these appointments and transfers promote diversity and cross-pollination of ideas, fostering an environment conducive to innovation and adaptability within the administrative ranks.
