Senior IAS Officer Anil Kumar Sagar Moved to Waiting List in Uttar Pradesh

The Uttar Pradesh Government has placed Senior IAS officer Anil Kumar Sagar (1998 batch) on the waiting list. Until recently, Officer Sagar handled three key roles: Chairman of the Yamuna Authority, Principal Secretary of the Infrastructure and Industrial Development Department, and IT & Electronics. His transfer comes amid a case filed by builder mafias.

Known for his low-profile yet resolute approach, Mr. Sagar earned a reputation for taking decisive action against wrongdoers in critical investigations assigned by the state government. He was widely appreciated for making the Chief Minister’s flagship project, ‘Invest UP,’ a success.

Officer Sagar’s administrative career includes serving as District Magistrate in prominent districts such as Lucknow, Kanpur, Raebareli, Sultanpur, Chandauli, Unnao, Aligarh, Etah, Siddharthnagar, Moradabad, and Saharanpur.
