Lt Governor Najeeb Jung transfers Delhi Deputy CM Manish Sisodia's secretary

New Delhi: Lt Governor Najeeb Jung has ordered transfer of Secretary to Deputy Chief Minister Manish Sisodia and posted him as the Registrar of Guru Gobind Singh Inraprastha University.

The Services Department has transfered Sisodia's Secretary C Arvind, an officer of Delhi Andaman Nicobar Island Civil Services (DANICS).

The department issued the order with approval of the Lt Governor.

"The Lt Governor is pleased to order transfer/posting of DANICS officer (C Arvind) with immediate effect," the order, dated October 14, stated.

It further stated the officer has been posted as Registrar of Guru Gobind Singh Inraprastha University on deputation.

It said the terms and condition of deputation in respect of the officer (C Arvind) will be settled in due course.

However, the AAP government, which has been at loggerheads with the Lt Governor office over transfers and postings of its officers at several occasions in the past, has not launched an attack publicly this time.
