West Bengal Chief Secretary Alapan Bandyopadhyay retired from his service and now he will act as Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s Chief Advisor. “Since Alapan Bandyopadhyay has retired today on May 31 from his service, he is not going to join in Delhi,” Mamata said. “I will not allow Alapan Banerjee to leave Nabanna. He is now the Chief Adviser to Chief Minister,” she added.
This comes after the Centre issued a show-cause notice to Alapan Bandyopadhyay after he failed to report to the department of personnel, public grievances and pensions (DoPT) in New Delhi today (Monday). The Centre had asked the top bureaucrat to join tomorrow (Tuesday), said Banerjee. “We just got a letter from IAS cadre rules; GoI asks Alapan to join tomorrow. The purpose of extension of service is not served,” said Mamata.
