Senior Bureaucracy Update: Centre Approves Premature Repatriation of Divya Alathur Bharathan to Parent Cadre for Promotional Elevation
The Competent Authority has officially sanctioned the proposal submitted by the Department of Pension & Pensioners’ Welfare for the premature repatriation of Ms. Divya Alathur Bharathan, an esteemed officer of the 2008 batch of the Indian Posts & Telecommunications Accounts and Finance Service (IP&TA&FS).
Ms. Bharathan, who has been serving with distinction as Director within the Department of Pension & Pensioners’ Welfare, is being transitioned back to her parent cadre to facilitate her timely promotion to a higher grade.
According to the official directive, the transition is to be executed with immediate effect. The Department has been instructed to relieve her of her current administrative responsibilities forthwith, ensuring her prompt reporting to the parent cadre to assume her new promotional role.
This move underscores the government’s commitment to effective cadre management, ensuring that senior officers on central deputation can seamlessly return to their home departments to avail themselves of career advancement opportunities as they arise.
Ms. Bharathan’s tenure at the Centre has been marked by significant contributions to pension welfare administration. Her return to the IP&TA&FS cadre is expected to bring back a wealth of experience gained during her central stint, further strengthening the financial and accounting leadership within the telecommunications and postal sectors.
