Vivek Pandian's: IAS Officer to Transformative Initiatives.

 Vivek Pandian, once the private secretary to Odisha's Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik, is now gearing up for another prominent role. His recent appointment as the head of the 5T (Transformative Tenet) and 'Nabin Odisha' charts a new chapter in his civil service career after opting for voluntary retirement. This appointment elevates him to the rank of a cabinet minister and allows him to work directly under CM Patnaik.


The 5T governance charter of the Odisha government, focused on transparency, technology, teamwork, and transformation, was earlier led by Pandian as its secretary. The program has been crucial to the success of multiple state initiatives as it attempts to expedite multiple projects.

Pandian is responsible for more than just administrative tasks. In particular, his leadership of significant projects like the Shree Jagannath Heritage Corridor is noteworthy. To improve visibility and security of the historic Shree Jagannath Temple, a 75-meter-wide roadway will be built around it. Additionally, he has played a leading role in the restoration of ancient temples throughout Odisha.


His expertise includes social welfare and governmental matters. He conducted extensive tours of all 147 assembly constituencies in Odisha within six months, engaging in discussions on local issues and assessing development projects. Even during the COVID-19 pandemic, Pandian was observed inspecting healthcare facilities' preparedness.

Civil Service Journey:

Before his high-ranking positions in the Odisha government, Pandian had a diverse career in the civil service. As a 2000-batch IAS officer, he commenced his public service journey as an Assistant Collector in Dharma nagar. He later served as District Collectors in Mayurbhanj and Ganjam.


'Mo Sarkar,' the government of Odisha's flagship program that improves citizen participation in governance, was launched as a result of Pandian's services. Ad hoc citizen feedback is sought as part of the drive to evaluate the effectiveness of public services. It is believed to make public employees answerable for their actions.
