The Ministry of Civil Aviation on Thursday invited applications for the
post of Representative of India in the Council of International Civil Aviation
Organization (ICAO, Montreal, Canada).
The post is much in demand among the career bureaucrats empanelled to
hold Joint Secretary-level post in the Govt of India. The post will fall vacant after Alok Shekhar (IAS:1994:PB) completes his
three-year tenure on 29 October 2019. Shekhar, then Secretary AERA, had
replaced Prashant Narain Sukul (IDAS:1982) in ICAO. Following the advertisement of the post, power corridors are abuzz as to
who may be the lucky one to replace Alok Shekhar. The applicants are required to have the experience of working for at
least twelve months in the field of civil aviation. It may be mentioned that the ICAO, a UN body, which is composed of 36
states, is elected for a three-year term. The council member states are chosen
under three headings -- states of chief importance in air transport, states
which make the largest contribution to the provision of facilities for air
navigation and states whose designation will ensure that all major areas of the
world are represented.
