RAS question
Tina Dabi, who topped UPSC 2015, was posted as District Collector of which district in April 2026 Rajasthan IAS reshuffle?
Correct answer: (B) Tonk.
In the April 2026 Rajasthan IAS reshuffle, Tina Dabi was appointed District Collector of Tonk.
Explanation
Tina Dabi, the UPSC 2015 All India Rank 1 officer from the 2016 IAS batch, was posted as District Collector of Tonk in Rajasthan's April 2026 IAS reshuffle. APAC News Network described the move as part of a wider administrative reshuffle in which the Rajasthan government transferred 25 IAS officers and appointed new District Collectors in several districts. As per the order, IAS Tina Dabi was appointed the new District Collector of Tonk. This was her third stint as a Collector, after an earlier Collector posting in Barmer.
Why the other options are wrong
- (A) Jaipur is wrong because the reshuffle list names Sandesh Nayak, not Tina Dabi, as District Collector and Magistrate, Jaipur.
- (C) Udaipur is wrong because the reshuffle list says Gaurav Agrawal was appointed Collector, Udaipur.
- (D) Jodhpur is wrong because the reshuffle list records Alok Ranjan as transferred to District Collector, Jodhpur.
Concept
This tests current administrative appointments under Rajasthan's political and administrative system, especially district-level IAS postings. Such reshuffle-based facts recur in RAS because they link state governance, personnel administration and contemporary Rajasthan affairs.
