Major shake-up in T babudom, Harichandana named Hyd collector, Lokesh new CCLA
1 2 3 4 Hyderabad: Telangana govt on Thursday transferred 36 IAS officers, including top bureaucrats and several district collectors, in a major reshuffle—the largest bureaucratic overhaul in the past one year since the Congress assumed power in Dec 2023. Posts in revenue, energy, Hyderabad collectorate, and Delhi coordination saw high-profile changes, hinting at an administrative reset designed to bolster CM Revanth Reddy's social justice, land reform, and national coordination agenda. Significantly, Navin Mittal, principal secretary of the revenue department for the last two years, has been shifted to the energy department. His replacement, DS Lokesh Kumar (from panchayat raj and rural development), has been given full additional charge as revenue secretary and chief commissioner of land administration (CCLA)—a sensitive post linked to the contentious land records and Bhu Bharati issues. In a high-visibility swap, Hyderabad district collector Anudeep Durishetty was moved to Khammam, while Dasari Harichandana, currently special secretary in roads and buildings, was named as the new Hyderabad collector—administratively crucial post. District collectors of Medchal Malkajgiri, Siddipet, Nizamabad, Sangareddy, and others were also changed. Senior bureaucrat Shashank Goel was appointed resident commissioner in Telangana Bhavan, Delhi. The incumbent, Gaurav Uppal, will now handle coordination with the govt of India on central projects and schemes. Other transfers include: N Sridhar (SC development) moved to panchayat raj; he retains charge of mines and geology, Jyothi Budha Prakash takes over SC development and planning, while Hanmanthu, former Nizamabad district collector, now heads stamps and registrations. Sangareddy distirct collector Valluru Kranthi was made MD of Telangana Tourism Development Corporation, replacing IPS officer Prakash Reddy. Information and public relations department saw a shuffle too. Commissioner S Harish, recently posted to TG Genco, was relieved of I&PR and revenue (disaster management) duties. Chekka Priyanka is the new I&PR commissioner. The other notable changes were: E Naveen Nicolas, secretary of Telangana Public Service Commission (TGPSC), now heads the school education department, as Priyanka Ala replaces him as secretary, TGPSC. GHMC additional commissioners Killu Sivakumar Naidu and Sneha Shabarish were shifted. Sivakumar, facing cadre issues, goes to irrigation; Sneha becomes Hanumakonda district collector, while P Praveenya (Hanumakonda) moves to Sangareddy as collector. Medchal district collector Gowtham Potru is now director (projects and personnel), SCCL; replaced by Mikkilineni Manu Choudary. T Vinay Krishna Reddy (Nizamabad) and K Hymavathi (Siddipet) round out the new collector postings. Follow more information on Air India plane crash in Ahmedabad here .
