nProfile ofnSubodh Yadav
n
n
n
nSuboth Yadav wasnborn on 5th August, 1972 in UP in a humble family. He was always anbright student throughout his schooling. Once done with schooling from hisnlocal government school, he prepared for Engineering and got admission in IIT,nRoorkey – at that time, it was not an IIT, though.

n
n
n
nHe has done B.nTech in Mechanical and then went for M. Tech. He worked in few companies beforendeciding to go for UPSC Civil Services Examination. Subodh cracked Civil Servicesnin his first attempt and got IAS with Karnataka cadre. Since then, he isnconstantly in news – for all good reasons.

nSubodh Yadav wasntransferred for many times. In fact, he was not allowed to work at one positionnfor more than one year. IAS officers got transferred and majority of them arenfor political reasons. But, transfer of Subodh always makes news because ofnsevere protests by locals. When he was prematurely transferred from the post ofnDC of Dakshinna Kannada, locals protested violently. However, politicians nevernlearned any lessons.

n
n
nIt should alsonbe noted that a honest officer has been treated in the same manner by bothnCongress and the BJP Governments of Karnataka.

n
nOnly recently,nwhen he was transferred out of BBMP, residents of Bangalore have started tonprotest. Actually, Subodh was honestly fighting a lone battle against turningnBangalore in a garbage city. He was working round the clock to make propernsolid waste management. Some of his honest initiatives were creating problemsnfor corrupt Congress politicians and contractors. The result was anotherntransfer. This time he was made Secretary of KPCC. The Government thought thatngiving him a good position with this transfer will keep people calm. But, thatnis not the case and lots of petitions are being filed against this order.
