New Delhi: The Appointments Committee of the Cabinet (ACC) has approved the appointment of Rituraj Misra, an Indian Railway Personnel Service (IRPS) officer of the 2010 batch, as the Private Secretary to the Minister of State for Coal & Mines Satish Chandra Dubey.
The appointment was cleared following a proposal from the Ministry of Coal and is effective from the date of assumption of charge. Misra will serve in the role at the Director level, under a combined tenure of up to seven years on Central Staffing Scheme (CSS) and Private Secretary (PS) posts, or until further orders, or co-terminus with the tenure of the Minister, whichever is earlier.
