"I told her (Sujatha Singh) that the government wanted to appoint Dr. Jaishankar as foreign secretary," Sushma Swaraj tweeted.
Since Jaishankar was retiring on 31st January, we had to issue orders of his appointment before that date," Swaraj said.
Swaraj was in office today, a day after the government abruptly announced "curtailment" of foreign secretary Sujatha Singh's tenure and appointed S Jaishankar in her place. After taking charge, Jaishanakar met Swaraj in her South Block office. Jaishankar, who was to have retired from the diplomatic service on Jan 31, said he was "honoured" to be given the responsibility. Sujatha Singh was not present at his takeover event.
The Modi government on Wednesday night appointed Jaishankar, an Indian Foreign Service officer of the 1977 batch, as the new foreign secretary. The Appointments committee of the Cabinet, in a decision taken Wednesday night, decided to "curtail the tenure" of the incumbent Sujatha Singh "with immediate effect". The Appointments Committee of the Cabinet is headed by Prime Minister Modi.
