Senior bureaucrat Tuhin Kanta Pandey has been appointed as the new revenue secretary under the finance ministry in a major bureaucratic reshuffle. This change comes as Pandey replaces Arunish Chawla, who will now serve as the secretary of the Department of Investment and Public Asset Management (DIPAM).

Senior bureaucrat Tuhin Kanta Pandey has been named the new revenue secretary after a significant bureaucratic reshuffle in two major finance ministry departments, as announced on Wednesday.
