APPSC New Chairperson: The state government has appointed retired IPS officer Anuradha as the new Chairperson of the Andhra Pradesh Public Service Commission (APPSC). Chief Secretary Neerabh Kumar issued a government order to this effect today. Anuradha, who brings with her a wealth of experience in law enforcement and administration, has previously served in various key roles, including Intelligence Chief and Home Secretary. Her appointment is seen as a strategic move by the government to bring in a seasoned and capable officer to oversee the crucial role of the APPSC in the recruitment process for various state government posts.
Anuradha’s extensive experience in administration is expected to enhance the efficiency and transparency of the commission’s functioning. During her tenure as Intelligence Chief, she played a significant role in maintaining law and order in the state, and as Home Secretary, she was instrumental in several policy implementations related to internal security.
Her leadership at APPSC comes at a time when the commission is set to conduct several important examinations and recruitment drives, including for state civil services and other administrative positions. It is anticipated that her expertise will ensure a smoother process in handling the recruitment exams, making the commission’s operations more robust and streamlined.
The appointment has been welcomed by various sections, including senior bureaucrats and public service aspirants, who hope that under her guidance, the APPSC will be able to address key issues like reducing the backlog of pending recruitments and ensuring timely announcements and results of competitive examinations.
