SRINAGAR: In a significant development, the Jammu and Kashmir Government has approved the elevation and appointment of two senior officers in the Jal Shakti Department. Upon their elevation, I/c Superintending Engineer, Mohammad Taj Chowdhary has been appointed as Chief Engineer, Jal Shakti (PHE) Kashmir on incharge basis, while I/c Superintending Engineer, Tirath Ram, has been appointed as Chief Engineer, Irrigation & Flood Control, Kashmir on incharge basis.
These appointments have been made in view of the exceptional circumstances arising from significant vacancies and a shortage of senior officers at the top level in the department. The Establishment-cum-Selection Committee had thoroughly discussed and recommended these elevations, underscoring the governmentâs commitment to filling critical positions.
Meanwhile, Jal Shakti Minister, Javed Ahmed Rana, has ordered the elevation of five Executive Engineers to Superintending Engineers, effectively filling up all vacancies at the Superintending Engineer level in the Department. This move is expected to bolster the implementation of vital water supply projects in Jammu and Kashmir. Ranaâs proactive interventions have already begun to transform the human resource landscape in the Jal Shakti Department. To ensure efficient project delivery, the Minister has directed to ensure regular monitoring and evaluation of top-level officersâ performance.
