V-Day gift for civil servant couples

New Delhi, Feb. 14: The Narendra Modi government has unwrapped a Valentine’s Day gift for civil servants, tweaking rules that will now allow married IPS-IAS-IFS couples to work in the same state. Sources in the Union home ministry said the government has in the past considered requests from civil servant couples but decided to change the rules today after Nisha, an IPS officer, wrote to the Prime Minister’s Office requesting an inter-cadre transfer.
