3 IAS & 1 IPS transferred in Chhattisgarh, Harish S made Collector Bastar

The Chhattisgarh government has transferred key IAS and IPS officers in a minor yet significant bureaucratic move.


Vijay Dayaram, Bastar Collector and a 2015-batch IAS officer has been removed from his post due to concerns over his performance. The decision came after a comprehensive review meeting led by Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai, which focused on improving administrative efficiency in Bastar.
