Will Mohammed Ali be next CGCA?

Anuradha Joshi Duragpal is scheduled to retire this month. Name of Mohammed Shahbaz Ali is doing the rounds for the post of next CGCA. He is a 1989 batch IP&TAS batch officer and presently posted as Advisor, Finance in the DoT HQ. As per information, Srikant Panda is senior to Ali but he is also scheduled to superannuate in May this year, therefore his chances look bleak.  Panda is a 1988 batch IP&TAFS officer.
