Amaravati, February 27 The Andhra Pradesh government appointed three officials on Friday to assist the one-man committee formed to examine the report submitted by the CBI-led SIT in the alleged Tirupati laddoo ghee adulteration case and recommend appropriate action.
Recently, the state had appointed retired IAS officer Dinesh Kumar as the head of the one-man committee.
In a government order, chief secretary K Vijayanand said the officials – Sri Munindra, PBVSS Siva Kumar, and DC Madhuri – have been appointed with immediate effect.
Munindra, a retired IFS officer, has been designated as the officer on special duty (OSD) to Dinesh Kumar, while Siva Kumar, a retired assistant secretary to the government, will serve as personal secretary. Madhuri has been deputed from the Real Time Governance System (RTGS) to assist the one-man committee.
The one-man committee was formed after the Supreme Court-appointed CBI-led SIT completed its investigation and filed a chargesheet.
It submitted the final chargesheet to the Court on January 23, along with a self-contained note (SCN) recommending the initiation of appropriate action against errant committee members and senior TTD officials over the laddoo ghee issue, as deemed fit.
