Haryana reshuffles 24 officers; Pradeep Dahiya back in Gurugram post
The state government of Haryana in India changed many important jobs at once.
They moved 24 government officers to new positions.
One of these officers is Pradeep Dahiya.
He was first told to be the top officer in a city called Rohtak.
But just one day later, the government changed its mind.
They sent him back to Gurugram instead.
Now he will lead the city's municipal corporation there.
The government did not tell anyone why it changed the decision so quickly.
Many other officers also got new jobs in departments like transport, power and public services.
Big changes like this can be confusing, and people are watching what happens next.
The Haryana government reshuffled 24 officers, including 17 IAS and seven HCS officials.
Pradeep Dahiya's posting as deputy commissioner of Rohtak was reversed within a day, and he was appointed commissioner of the Gurugram municipal corporation.
The government did not give a reason for the swift reversal of Dahiya's posting.
Pankaj was appointed secretary of the Haryana Public Service Commission and managing director of the Haryana Power Generation Corporation Ltd.
Prabhjot Singh was given charge of the Transport Department as secretary and transport commissioner.
