Bihar appoints police and department chiefs
Kumar Ravi will now lead the health department, Ajay Yadav takes over energy, and Sanjay Kumar Singh is moving to finance.
On the police side, Sudhanshu Kumar is the new ADG for law and order, Nirmal Kumar Azad heads training, Amit Kumar Jain will handle economic offenses, Nayyar Hasnain Khan leads Bihar Special Armed Police, and Amit Lodha is in charge of ADG (Wireless and Technical Services).
It's a pretty big shuffle aimed at keeping things running smoothly across departments.
