Additionally, Khullar will handle all departments that have not been specifically allocated to any other officer, further expanding his administrative reach within the state machinery.

Other Senior Officers Receive Significant Responsibilities

The work allocation extends beyond Khullar to other key officials attached to the Chief Minister's Office. Arun Kumar Gupta, Principal Secretary to the Chief Minister, has been entrusted with ten departments, marking his continued importance in the administrative framework.

Meanwhile, Yashpal Yadav, Deputy Principal Secretary, has been assigned responsibility for nine departments, reflecting the government's approach to distributing administrative workload across multiple experienced officers.

Comprehensive Distribution of CMO Functions

The administrative reshuffle encompasses a wide range of CMO functions beyond departmental oversight. Other officers from both the Indian Administrative Service (IAS) and Haryana Civil Service (HCS) cadres attached to the CMO have received allocations for various crucial functions, including:

  1. Management of the Chief Minister's Window for public grievances
  2. Implementation of announcements made by the Chief Minister
  3. Handling of public grievances and complaints
  4. Organization of public hearings and interactions

This comprehensive work distribution aims to streamline administrative processes within the Chief Minister's Office while ensuring efficient governance across Haryana's various departments and public service mechanisms. The allocation reflects a strategic approach to bureaucratic management that balances continuity of experienced leadership with systematic distribution of responsibilities.
