The Odisha government has transferred seven Indian Administrative Service officers, leading to the appointment of new district collectors for Nuapada and Nabarangpur.
The state administration announced the transfer of seven IAS officers as part of a routine reshuffle. The move has resulted in fresh appointments for the collector posts in Nuapada and Nabarangpur districts.
Officials said the transfers are aimed at strengthening governance and ensuring balanced administrative experience across districts. The newly posted collectors are expected to take charge within the next few days, pending formal handover procedures.
No further details on the individual officers or their new postings were disclosed, as the government typically releases only the district-level changes in such notices.
The reshuffle comes at a time when the state is focusing on rural development and disaster management, areas where district collectors play a pivotal role.
