IAS officer Rohini Sindhuri took charge as the Deputy Commissioner of Hassan district on Tuesday, following orders from the government.

Speaking to reporters, Rohini said she would continue to serve the people of the district with the same dedication as before.

“Coalition government in the state is a political issue, I am the deputy commissioner of Hassan. It will not have any impact on my work,” she said.

As per the norms, the deputy commissioner has to serve a district for a minimum of two years. It requires at least six months to know about the district. If the DC is transferred before that, it affects the welfare of the district, she said.
