The Gujarat administration has compelled two senior IAS officers to retire as part of its anti‑corruption drive, Operation Gangajal, citing misconduct and misuse of power.
The Gujarat government announced that two senior IAS officers were compulsorily retired under the umbrella of its anti‑corruption initiative, Operation Gangajal. The decision was taken after investigations revealed allegations of misconduct and misuse of authority by the officers.
Operation Gangajal, launched earlier this year, aims to curb corruption in public service and ensure accountability in the administration. The retirement of the officers is part of a broader effort to strengthen governance and restore public trust.
The Gujarat administration has not released the names of the officers involved, but officials confirmed that the action was taken following a formal inquiry. The move is expected to send a clear message to civil servants about the consequences of unethical conduct.
