Punjab: Five veterinary officers dismissed
In a bold move to address negligence and absenteeism, Punjab Animal Husbandry Department on Thursday terminated the services of five veterinary officers with immediate effect.
New Municipal Commissioners were appointed in Ludhiana, Bathinda, and Jalandhar with Sandeep Rishi taking charge in Ludhiana, Rahul in Bathinda, and Aditya Uppal in Jalandhar.
This development unfolded as part of the broader reshuffling of administrative roles, which saw eight IAS and 11 PCS officers being transferred recently.
Additionally, the Punjab Roadways Transport Corporation (PRTC) welcomed Ravinder Singh as its new Managing Director. Among other notable changes, Chander Gaind assumed the additional responsibility of Secretary, Water Resources, and three IAS officers were designated as Additional Deputy Commissioners (ADCs) in various districts.
