By the way : New power centres in PMO


Who is the most powerful officer in the Prime Minister’s Office after PK Mishra and PK Sinha? The question is difficult to answer as every officer in the PMO is equally important and influential. Still observing the work distribution, AK Sharma and Tarun Bajaj, both 1988-batch IAS officers from Gujarat and Haryana cadre, respectively, would tie for the distinction. Both have been allotted the work of Secretary to the Prime Minister though they will remain as Additional Secretaries. AK Sharma was in the Gujarat Chief Minister’s office since 2001 (when Narendra Modi was CM).
