The Haryana government on Thursday removed 2001 batch IAS officer, Vijay Dahiya, who is an accused in a corruption case, from the posts of commissioner and secretary, Youth Empowerment and Entrepreneurship (YEE), and member secretary, Kurukshetra Development Board.
His anticipatory bail application was turned down by a Panchkula court on May 3. Dahiya’s fresh postings orders were not issued on Thursday.

The company was engaged by the Haryana Skill Development Mission, which is under the administrative control of Youth Empowerment and Entrepreneurship, with Dahiya as its administrative secretary. The officer was also questioned by the ACB sleuths.
Development and Panchayats additional chief secretary Anil Malik was given the additional charge of the Youth Empowerment and Entrepreneurship, while Urban Local Bodies commissioner and secretary Vikas Gupta was given the additional charge of the Kurukshetra Development Board member secretary.
