Interesting to see Anurag Agarwal moving to Town and Country Planning. That department is crucial for Gurugram and Faridabad's urban chaos. Hope he brings the same focus he had on irrigation. We need better city planning desperately!

As a farmer's son from Karnal, I'm watching Vijayendra Kumar's move to Agriculture dept. closely. This is the heart of Haryana. Hope he understands ground realities and doesn't get stuck in Chandigarh files. Our annadata needs support.

Good to see Ashima Brar getting additional charge of Energy. Having a finance background should help in managing the department's budgets and projects more efficiently. Hope it leads to fewer power cuts this summer!

With respect, these reshuffles sometimes feel like musical chairs. An officer is moved just as they start understanding one department's issues. Continuity is important for long-term projects. Hope this is well thought out and not just administrative exercise.
