In a significant bureaucratic reshuffle, Aadhar Raj, the Additional Divisional Railway Manager (ADRM) of Danapur, has been elevated to a key position in the central government. The seasoned railway officer has been appointed as the Joint Secretary in the Ministry of Power, Government of India, located in New Delhi. His tenure in this crucial role is set for a period of five years.
A Stint Marked by Railway Development
During his service as the ADRM of the Danapur division under the East Central Railway, Aadhar Raj was at the forefront of numerous transformative initiatives. He actively piloted and supervised several key development projects that focused on a trio of critical areas: enhancing operational efficiency, upgrading passenger amenities, and strengthening the division's core infrastructure.
A senior official from the Danapur railway administration highlighted that Raj's hands-on leadership and strategic oversight were instrumental in driving progress. His contributions are widely acknowledged to have played a significant role in the overall development and modernisation of the Danapur railway division. This period earned him considerable recognition for his effective administrative capabilities and proficient execution of complex projects.
Transition to National Energy Governance
The move from the railways to the power ministry represents a notable transition for the officer, placing him in a pivotal sector central to India's growth and sustainability goals. As Joint Secretary, Aadhar Raj will now bring his proven experience in managing large-scale infrastructure and development projects to the national energy landscape. His appointment underscores the government's intent to leverage administrative talent with a strong track record in project implementation for key national ministries.
The Danapur railway division, which benefited from his leadership, now sees one of its senior officials taking on a challenging role at the heart of India's power policy and administration in the capital.
