Jyothilal back to helm General Administration dept.

A Cabinet meeting held here on Monday decided to reinstate senior bureaucrat K.R. Jyothilal in the General Administration Department (GAD) in a major reshuffle in the top echelons of the bureaucracy.

Mr. Jyothilal, who is currently Principal Secretary in the Transport Department, was given full additional charge of the GAD. The return comes two months after he was removed from the post to placate Governor Arif Mohammed Khan after he had reportedly written to Raj Bhavan on the appointment of senior journalist and BJP fellow-traveller Hari S. Kartha’s appointment as Additional Personal Assistant to the Kerala Governor.

Sarada Muraleedharan, Additional Chief Secretary in the Local Self Government (Urban & Rural) Department, has been given additional charge of the Urban Waste to Energy Programme and the Kerala Solid Waste Management Project.
