Sayeed Khan is now head of GAD, Vyas Principal Secretary to CM

Early Times Report

SRINAGAR, Jan 10: Taking immediate cognizance of the Early Times report, that appeared on January 9^th, Government of Jammu and Kashmir today updated the official website of General Administration Department www.jkgad.nic.in and made necessary corrections in the designations of Indian Administrative Officers.

Pathetically, the link containing information about 100-odd IAS officers of J&K Cadre had never been updated since January 18, 2010. It even described Commissioner-Secretary of GAD, Mohammad Sayeed Khan, as “Secretary Social Welfare” though he had been long back relieved by Mr Jeet Lal and had taken over as head of GAD in August 2010. He was among dozens of senior bureaucrats and officials who had been shifted to new places on August 26, 2010.

Thanks to the correction made today, Bharat Bhushan Vyas has been correctly mentioned as Principal Secretary to Chief Minister and Khursheed Ahmed Ganai as Principal Secretary Planning.
