New Delhi: Under fire for clearing Shakuntala Gamlin's appointment as acting Delhi Chief Secretary, the Arvind Kejriwal government on Wednesday transferred Anindo Majumdar to the post of CMD in Delhi Finance Corporation.
Majumdar was earlier removed as Principal Secretary Services. The Aam Aadmi Party government moved him despite Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung's order that his removal was null and void.
Parimal Rai has been appointed as Principal Secretary for Social Welfare and WCD. Rai was the Delhi government's choice for acting Delhi Chief Secretary.
Two other officers are also being transferred.
The Delhi government had on May 18 locked Majumdar's office ostensibly for clearing Gamlin's appointment. A controversy broke out over senior bureaucrat Shakuntala's appointment and it deepened after the Arvind Kejriwal government ordered the removal of Majumdar from the post of Principal Secretary (Services).
