Bengaluru (18.10.2023): Rajneesh Goel (IAS: 1986: KT) is tipped to become the next chief secretary of Karnataka as incumbent Vandita Sharma (IAS: 1986: KT) is retiring in November, 2023. Names of other senior IAS officers such as Ajay Seth (IAS: 1987: KT), V Manjula (IAS: 1987: KT) and Rakesh Singh (IAS: 1987: KT) are also doing the rounds.  Goel’s appointment in the chief minister’s office is a clear indication that Siddaramaiah may prefer to have him as CS.
Seth may not throw his hat in the ring as he is already a secretary at the Department of Economic Affairs and he played a pivotal role in the recent G20 summit. Manjula, although junior to Goel, is also in contention as she was empanelled as secretary last year.  Rakesh Singh could also be another contender as he will be retiring in May while Goel is due for retirement in July next year.
