In a recent key decision, the government has approved the inter-cadre transfer of a prominent Indian Administrative Service (IAS) officer, Shri Krishna Bajpai. This move facilitates his transition from the Bihar cadre to the Karnataka cadre, made possible on compassionate grounds due to his marriage to Mrs. Dipika Bajpai, an Indian Forest Service (IFS) officer already serving in Karnataka. Such transfers underscore the government’s commitment to accommodating personal circumstances within its administrative framework, ensuring that dedicated civil servants can continue their crucial work while balancing family life. This particular approval highlights the flexibility and human-centric approach sometimes adopted in the civil services, allowing officers to serve across states under special provisions.
