Nilam Sawhney, a 1984 batch IAS officer is likely to be the new chief secretary of Andhra Pradesh.
She is now the secretary in the department of social justice and empowerment.
Nilam Sawhney, an MSc graduate from Delhi, is the third in seniority list of the AP IAS officers, after L V Subrahmanyam.
The second officer, Preeti Sudan, of the 1983 batch, is currently the secretary of the Ministry of Health and Family Welfare in the Central government.
Nilam Sawhney, a straight forward officer, had luncheon meeting with Chief Minister Jagan Mohan Reddy, at his Tadepalli residence, minutes before Subrahmanyam’s transfer orders were issued.
Jagan Mohan Reddy is said to be looking for senior officer who is ready to catch up his speed.
Sources in CMO says that the chief minister had to wait for weeks together to get some orders issued during Subrahmanyam’s tenure.
In addition to the delay in orders, the chief minister was also upset with some of the IAS officers still reporting to Chandrababu Naidu.
The copies of the GOs are sent to the TDP chief by some IAS officers before they were numbered and released.
Though the chief minister asked the CS to identify such officers and take action, Subrahmanyam did not make any move to arrest this leakage, leading to his transfer.
