The competent authority has formally approved the redesignation of the post of Deputy Secretary that is presently occupied by Ms Karamjeet Kaur, an officer of the Indian Economic Service (IES). This decision forms part of an administrative exercise aimed at restructuring roles and aligning official designations with evolving functional requirements within the government framework.
According to official sources, the redesignation does not alter Ms Karamjeet Kaur’s service status or cadre affiliation but reflects a recalibration of responsibilities and hierarchy associated with the post she currently holds. Such changes are typically undertaken to ensure greater efficiency, clarity of duties, and optimal utilization of expertise within key policy and administrative divisions.
Ms Karamjeet Kaur, a member of the Indian Economic Service, has been handling important assignments in her capacity as Deputy Secretary, contributing to policy formulation, economic analysis, and inter-departmental coordination. The redesignation of her post is expected to streamline decision-making processes and better align the position with the nature and scale of work being performed.
Officials emphasized that redesignation exercises are a routine part of administrative reforms and are carried out after due consideration of organizational needs, workload assessment, and functional relevance. The move underscores the government’s ongoing efforts to modernize administrative structures and ensure that designations accurately reflect roles and responsibilities at various levels.
Further details regarding the revised designation and its operational implications are expected to be communicated separately through official notifications.
