18 senior RAS officers in Rajasthan have been promoted to the Indian Administrative Service (IAS). The Central Government has given official approval under the 2025 selection quota.
This decision was taken after intensive discussions and selection processes between the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) and the State Government. This promotion has been made based on the 2025 selection list.
These officers, who had been waiting for promotion for a long time, will now be assigned new and larger responsibilities. This decision is expected to further strengthen the administrative structure of Rajasthan.
Officers from two main batches have been included in this promotion process. This includes names of 15 officers from the 1998 batch and 3 officers from the 1999 batch.
According to the notification issued by the Central Government, this selection was made based on vacancies between January 01, 2025, and December 31, 2025. These officers have extensive experience working in various departments of the state.
The names of the officers joining the IAS cadre are as follows:
The names of Arun Prakash Sharma and Ram Swarup included in the list are currently kept provisional. The final decision on their names will be subject to the approval of departmental disciplinary proceedings.
For the remaining officers, this promotion will be considered effective immediately. The Chief Secretary of the state has extended best wishes to all officers for their bright future through social media.
All these officers have served in important positions like ADM, Director, and Additional Registrar during their careers. The benefit of their experience will now be available to the state government through the IAS cadre.
The state government may soon issue new posting orders for all these 18 officers. Following this, new administrative reshuffles can be seen in various districts and departments.
