6/29/2007 12:42:22 AM




Jammu, June 28: A not so senior IAS Officer, MK Dwivedi was when recently removed from the post of Deputy Commissioner Kargil, the keen watcher of bureaucratic reshuffled were little surprised that he his new posting was kept in waiting. After all Dwivedi has knack for getting postings of his choice –whatever circumstances may be and whosoever the political boss is.
The suspense is over. A separate order has been issued posting Dwivedi as Director Rural Development, Jammu –a post far higher, significant and influential than that of a Deputy Commissioner –which Dwivedi has been till recently.
Diwivedi has replaced Gurdev Raj Bhagat for whom perhaps there was no vacant place to adjust. Therefore, Bhagat has been, form the time being, “parked” in Service Selection Board as a member against available vacancy.
It may be recalled that Dwivedi was Deputy Commissioner Rajouri when in April 2004, he was shifted to Jammu as Director, Employment –a nearly defunct post with no significant role to play. However, on the recommendations of the Election Commission of India, the then Chief Minister Mufti Mohammad Sayeed had to send him back to Rajouri as Deputy Commissioner. The hurt in the heart, however, remained.
Immediately when the Lok Sabha elections were over, Mufti effected transfers and postings placing Dwivedi again back as Director Employment. Just after few weeks, the officer got the order modified. The Government had to issue a separate order making a cycle of around four officers to adjust Dwivedi. He was made Director School Education –a post which he manned till 2006.
Recently, Mandeep Bhandari took over as Deputy Commissioner Leh replacing Dwivedi. No fresh orders of adjustment were issued following the cabinet meeting of June 11. interestingly, after two weeks the government today issued orders placing him as Director Rural Development, Jammu
