Jhunjhunu : After waiting for twenty days, when 2014 batch IAS officer Ashish Modi did not leave his current post and take over as Churu Collector, the government finally had to appoint young IAS Abhishek Surana here. Discussions started in political and administrative circles as to what was the reason that the government had to keep IAS Ashish Modi as Director of Secondary Education Board Bikaner. Although it is the government’s discretion, but this U-turn of the government has now become a topic of discussion. The opposition has also started cornering the government on this issue.
Many reasons are being cited for cancellation of transfer
Let us tell you that in the transfer list of 22 IAS officers released on 5th September, IAS Ashish Modi was given the responsibility of Churu Collector. Due to Ashish Modi not joining, Additional Collector Uttam Singh Shekhawat held the post of Churu Collector as acting for about 19-20 days. All eyes are on when Ashish Modi will join. Sources say that Ashish Modi was not interested in working in the new post. Apart from this, many other reasons are also being given due to which IAS Ashish Modi could not join this post.
