Former chief secretary of Andhra Pradesh L V Subrahmanyam, who was shunted out of his post following his confrontation with Chief Minister’s Office recently, will not return to Andhra Pradesh again in his official capacity.
Subrahmanyam, who was transferred to an insignificant position in the AP Human Resources Development Institute, did not report to his new assignment and went on a month-long leave. He is expected to join the duties by December 6.
However, sources said Subrahmanyam had conveyed to his friends that he would not return to Andhra cadre again to do any other menial job. It would mean he would continue extending his leave period indefinitely.
In the meantime, he is trying hard for a central deputation and if he succeeds, he would go to Delhi and retire at the Centre.
But sources said the chances of Subrahmanyam getting a job at the Centre are very bleak as he has only five months left in his service.
No officer with such a short time left for retirement will be given any posting at the Centre as he would be completing his tenure even before he gets a complete understanding of the work he is assigned at the Centre.
So, Subrahmanyam has to continue his leave and make a quiet exit. But at least a day before his retirement, he has to report to the duty to see that his service is completed. Since he vowed not to return to the AP cadre again, he has to try for the central deputation.
Sadly, there is no formal send-off or farewell to Subrahmanyam in Andhra. It is a very disappointing thing for any IAS officer who has reached such a high position.
