Leaders' Message

Miles to Go!

"Dear colleagues, I am overwhelmed with the warmth you have showered on me. It truly gives me immense pleasure that the current development on my career front (appointment as DG-HR) has given you all moments to rejoice. I am grateful to have your continuous wishes and I am confident that collectively we will make the difference to our cadre and our organization. Heartiest thanks to all of my seniors and everyone of you who have reposed their faith and belief on me, as this may not have been possible and must have remained a distant dream. Truth prevails eventually and it’s not my individual but is our collective achievement. We collectively need to see that we succeed. It’s just a beginning and we have miles to go. Look forward for happier days for all of us ahead. "
