India administrative reshuffles (May‑Sep 2026)
Overview
The wave of senior civil‑service reassignments that began in late May 2026 spread across several states and reached the centre. On 14 July, Assam reassigned senior IAS and ACS officers, while West Bengal transferred 33 IPS officers and Bihar moved 22 State Police Service DSPs to new posts. Rajasthan carried out a night‑time reshuffle of 18 IPS officers on 15 July. On 24 July, the Appointments Committee of the Cabinet approved a sweeping IAS reshuffle, naming 13 senior IAS/IDAS officers as Secretaries. In August 2026, administrative changes continued in several states. Himachal Pradesh expanded the responsibilities of five IAS officers, while in Haryana, Virender Kumar Dahiya was appointed Secretary of the Haryana Vidhan Sabha. The Ministry of Home Affairs ordered the transfer of several IPS officers from the Delhi cadre to Jammu and Kashmir. In Rajasthan, the state government implemented a significant reshuffle within the Forest Department, transferring 69 IFS officers, followed by a broader reshuffle on 17 August involving 26 IAS and 53 RAS officers. In mid-to-late August, Madhya Pradesh transferred four IAS officers, while Chhattisgarh implemented a major reshuffle by appointing female IAS officers as collectors in 12 districts. Uttar Pradesh conducted a police reshuffle involving nine IPS officers. By early September, Haryana underwent a significant police reshuffle, and Madhya Pradesh announced a major reshuffle involving 11 IAS officers. On 13 September, the Madhya Pradesh Home Department issued a major order affecting 137 police officers, including 10 IPS and 127 State Police Service officers, to strengthen law and order. On 18 September, the Odisha government reshuffled 14 newly inducted IAS officers. In late September, Uttar Pradesh implemented a major administrative overhaul.
