The buzz around the new Chief Secretary’s appointment is going about with twists and turns. It seems Chief Minister Revanth Reddy might just be eyeing an SC or BC officer for the coveted post, making social justice the hallmark of his selection. Insiders hint that with hardly any Reddys in the running among the top bureaucrats, the CM could be setting a precedent in promoting diversity over traditional hierarchies. For the uninitiated, Revanth has already woven social justice into his decision-making by ensuring inclusivity in the Chief Minister’s Office itself. While the civil services grapevine remains abuzz, one thing’s for sure—this pick will be closely watched for its symbolic value and its nod to the broader narrative of empowerment.
