Tamil Nadu Government appoints Shiv Das Meena as RERA Chairman

Tamil Nadu govt on Sunday appointed chief secretary Shiv Das Meena as chairman of Tamil Nadu Real Estate Regulatory Authority (TN RERA). Chief minister's secretary 1 N Muruganandam would replace Meena as chief secretary. The official order on Muruganandam replacing Meena is expected on Monday, sources said. The position of RERA chairperson had been vacant for six months, after K Gnanadesikan completed his tenure on Feb 10. The housing and urban development department, in an order issued Sunday, said the selection committee recommended eligible candidates for appointment to the post of chairperson. DMK govt had retained Murugananadam to lead the industries department initially assigned to him by the previous Edappadi K Palaniswami regime. He served as finance secretary as well in the DMK regime. In the Union Ministry of Ports, Shipping, and Waterways, he had served as director general of the lighthouses and lightships. "Muruganandam is the only officer from Tamil Nadu in the senior rank as others moved to Central deputation. He is a fine officer to steer the administration," said an official source, privy to the developments. One of the frontrunners for the next chief minister's secretary I post is K Phanindra Reddy, who is currently transport secretary.
