CM approves transfer of 23 DANICS, file sent to L-G

Chief Minister Atishi on Wednesday approved the transfer of 23 Delhi, Andaman and Nicobar, Lakshadweep, Daman and Diu and Dadra and Nagar Haveli (Civil) Services recommended by the National Capital Civil Service Authority, officials said.

These transfers include reassignment of departments for several existing officers, granting additional charges to some, and assigning roles to seven officers recently transferred from Andaman and Nicobar Islands and Lakshadweep to Delhi Government departments, they said.

Following the concurrence of the National Capital Civil Service Authority, the file has now been sent to the Lieutenant-Governor for final approval.

“These transfers will bring fresh perspectives to various departments and enhance administrative efficiency,” said Atishi while approving the proposal.

Among the 23 officers, seven were recently transferred to Delhi from Andaman & Nicobar Islands and Lakshadweep.

They will now be posted to different departments under the Delhi Government. Additionally, several existing DANICS officers will see changes in their departmental responsibilities.

This reshuffle is expected to streamline governance and ensure optimal utilisation of the officers’ expertise in serving Delhi’s citizens, an official said.
