He had come under a cloud for his association with gold case accused
The government has reinstated IAS officer M. Sivasankar pending the finalisation of the disciplinary action initiated against him.
The former Principal Secretary to Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan had come under a cloud in July 2020 for his alleged association with the prime accused in the UAE consulate-linked gold smuggling case Swapna Suresh.
A subsequent government inquiry found that Mr. Sivasankar had appointed Swapna as a marketing liaison officer at Space Park project. At the time, Swapna was on the payrolls of the UAE consulate.
