Indian Administrative Service officer Ashwini Bhide was on Friday appointed as principal secretary to Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis.
Bhide will continue to hold her current charge as MD of the Mumbai Metro Rail Corp. until further direction, said an order from the General Administration Department.
The 1995-batch officer replaced Brijesh Singh as principal secretary in the Chief Minister's Office.
Shrikar Pardeshi, who served as secretary to Fadnavis when he was deputy chief minister in the previous government, was recently transferred to the CMO as a secretary.
