M T Krishna Babu’s transfer from the post of the Commissioner of GHMC hasn’t gone well with him. He was ready for the transfer but was taken aback that he wasn’t taken into confidence and has to learn about his transfer through a news scrolling. Speaking to The Hans India, M T Krishna Babu said, “The contract and outsourced staff in the sanitation wing were on strike and we were negotiating till 6 pm and the news of my transfer comes through TV channels. I have completed 2 years 4 months and transfer was inevitable, but it was a very arbitrary transfer.

The Chief Minister’s Office (CMO) could have hinted at the transfer or discussed it. I never asked for any posting and respect the Chief Minister, but this is becoming an unhealthy practice and most IAS officers do not open up out of fear of being sidelined. I respect the CMO and its decisions. When I was with the Central Power Distribution Company Limited (CPDCL), Anantapur, I was always interested in the power sector, but on the word of the Chief Minister I joined the GHMC.” His disillusionment was apparent at a press conference while handing over the charge to new commissioner Somesh Kumar. While exiting the press conference, in a jocular tone Krishna Babu said to the press, “Next time I get transferred, you people let me know.”
