Goa

With the transfer of bureaucrat Sudhir Mahajan to Andaman and Nicobar Islands, the post of the interim Real Estate Regulatory Authority has fallen vacant.

The government has issued an order stating the secretary of urban development will officiate as the regulatory authority, however, Goa lacks a full time urban development secretary, too.

IAS officer Nila Mohanan has been given charge as urban development secretary as an interim measure along with her full time assignments as secretary education and secretary revenue.

“Government of Goa hereby designates the secretary urban development as the regulatory authority for the purpose. This order shall come into force with immediate effect,” director and additional secretary for municipal administration R Menaka said in the official order.
