Centre appoints two more senior officers to NTA amid overhaul

The Indian Central government has appointed two additional senior officers to the National Testing Agency (NTA) as part of a broader restructuring initiative aimed at improving the agency's efficiency and accountability. Anshuman Sharma, an IRS officer, has been appointed as joint secretary in the NTA, while Sathiya S, also an IRS officer, has been named director. These appointments follow previous changes, bringing the total number of directors to five and joint directors to four since March 2025. The restructuring aligns with the recommendations of the Radhakrishnan committee, which emphasized enhancing the NTA's permanent workforce. The government has also taken steps to remove underperforming staff, replace them with new professionals, and implement stricter quality control measures in examinations.
