Rahul Navin appointed as director of Enforcement Directorate

Navin, currently posted as special director, was already heading the agency as its in-charge (interim) chief since September last year, when the former director Sanjay Kumar Mishra completed his tenure.

“The Appointments Committee of the Cabinet (ACC) has approved the appointment of Rahul Navin, IRS Special Director, ED, as Director of Enforcement in the Directorate of Enforcement for a period of two years with effect from the date of assumption of charge of the post, or until further orders, whichever is earlier,” stated an order issued by the department of personnel and training (DoPT).

The ACC is headed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, with union home minister Amit Shah as its member.
