Nanthakumar, IAS, as the State Level Nodal Officer for the Ramanathapuram Aspirational District. He replaces Thiru.

What the document does
G.O.(Ms).No. 81 of the Planning and Development (SDG) Department, dated 13 June 2023, makes an administrative appointment for the Ramanathapuram Aspirational District. It nominates Thiru. K. Nanthakumar, IAS, Secretary to Government, Human Resources Management Department, as the State Level Nodal Officer, also described as the State Prabhari Officer, for the district.
The appointment follows his selection as Monitoring Officer for Ramanathapuram District. He takes the place of Thiru. Dharmendra Pratap Yadav, IAS, in the State Level Nodal Officer role.
Why the appointment was made
The Government had previously appointed State Level Nodal Officers to act as a bridge between the Central Government and each Aspirational District. It also appoints Monitoring Officers for districts to review and inspect major schemes and programmes, suggest solutions to district officials and help remove implementation bottlenecks.
To avoid one officer visiting two districts, or two officers reviewing the same district, the Government decided that a district's Monitoring Officer should also serve as its State Level Nodal Officer.
Key points are:
- Monitoring Officers are expected to visit their allotted districts once a month.
- Their inspections and reviews are intended to be purposeful and focused on results.
- Thiru. K. Nanthakumar, IAS, became Monitoring Officer for Ramanathapuram District and was therefore nominated as its State Level Nodal Officer.
- Dr. R. Anandakumar, IAS, continues as Monitoring Officer and State Level Nodal Officer for the Virudhunagar Aspirational District.

G.O.(Ms).No. 81 directly concerns the appointed officers, the Ramanathapuram and Virudhunagar district administrations, NITI Aayog and the government departments involved in the Aspirational Districts Programme.
Property buyers, landowners and land professionals are not assigned any duty under the document. G.O.(Ms).No. 81 contains no provision changing land classification, ownership, registration, planning permission, land use or property charges.
