The Government today ordered placement of Mohammad Hussain Malik, KAS, Secretary to the Chief Minister as Commissioner Secretary to the Chief Minister.

Malik is also holding the charge of Information, Floriculture and Parks and Gardens Departments.

Hailing the placement of Malik as Commissioner Secretary to the Government, the KAS Officers Association today said that it is for the first time in the administrative history of J&K that a KAS officer has reached to the level of the Commissioner Secretary.
