Bhopal: Suspense over Chief Secretary appointment continues, Bains retiring today

Bhopal (Madhya Pradesh): Chief Secretary Iqbal Singh Bains is retiring on Wednesday, but suspense over who will be the new chief secretary continues.

There were speculations about the extension of Bains on Tuesday.  It is not yet clear whether Bains will get extension or a new chief secretary will be appointed. Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan was in Delhi to campaign for the party for the Delhi civic polls.

Therefore, speculations about Bains’s extension deepened after Chouhan returned from Delhi.

Anurag Jain, who is in Delhi, is coming to Bhopal in January to assess the “Gaati Shakti Scheme” of the Central Government.
