Bihar promotes 34 IAS officers, including DMs of Nalanda, Gaya and Samastipur
The 2014-batch officers move to the selection grade, with pay at the level of a special secretary from 1 January 2027.
The Bihar government has promoted 34 IAS officers who joined in 2014. Among them are the district magistrates (DMs) of Nalanda, Gaya and Samastipur.
The officers move up to what is called the selection grade. From 1 January 2027 they will get the pay of a special secretary, Prabhat Khabar reported on 10 November, citing the State’s order.
The government has also moved 15 officers of the Bihar Administrative Service to new jobs. Some are now in charge of land records and land buying in their districts, Prabhat Khabar and Amar Ujala reported.
The selection grade is a step up in pay. Officers usually get it after about 13 years. It does not by itself change where they work.
