Additional Commissioner of BMC, Sudhakar Shinde, has been repatriated to his parent IRS cadre. This action follows objections from the IAS Association regarding his overstaying in the position after the expiry of his deputation, as well as allegations of irregularities from both ruling and opposition parties.
The state government informed Shinde late Tuesday that he was being relieved with immediate effect because the Appointments Committee of the Cabinet had not approved a proposal (sent by the state government) to extend his eight-year deputation beyond November 23, 2023. He was instructed to join his parent cadre, the Indian Revenue Service, on Wednesday. Shinde, the younger brother of a former BJP minister and a 2007 batch IRS officer, faced criticism from city BJP leaders who felt sidelined by him. They believed he was taking orders only from the Chief Minister`s Office. The opposition also expressed dissatisfaction with his performance.
