IAS Rohit Meena Named Additional Secretary, Medical Health & Medical Education
In a fresh administrative reshuffle, the Uttarakhand government has assigned key responsibilities to two IAS officers and one Secretariat Service officer, ending their prolonged period in compulsory waiting. The appointments were formalized through Order No. 556 / XXX-1-2025, issued by the Personnel and Vigilance Department (Section-01) on Wednesday.
Among the newly appointed officials is IAS Rohit Meena (2014 batch), who has been posted as Additional Secretary in the Department of Medical Health and Medical Education. Meena had recently returned from a study leave abroad and had been awaiting a formal posting since reporting back.
IAS Narendra Singh Bhandari (2016 batch) has been appointed Additional Secretary, Planning Department. Like Meena, Bhandari had also been in compulsory waiting following his return to the state.
Additionally, Santosh Badoni, a Secretariat Service officer recently promoted to the rank of Additional Secretary, has been entrusted with the Animal Husbandry and Fisheries Department.
These appointments bring an end to the administrative limbo for the three officers and are expected to inject renewed efficiency and direction into their respective departments.
