💨 Abstract

Senior Odisha IAS officer Sujata Karthikeyan, wife of BJD leader V.K. Pandian, has voluntarily retired from service. Karthikeyan was a key figure in Naveen Patnaik's government's 'Mission Shakti' program, empowering women through self-help groups. Trouble started when she was transferred ahead of last year's assembly elections following allegations of misuse of public office.
