TJ Kavitha is good choice for CMO

TJ Kavitha's exposure with two ministers in Modi cabinet will help her deliver well in CMO. Her predecessors Rajesh Kumar Gupta in Gehlot's team and Arijit Banerjee in Vasundhara Raje's team have done exceptionally well. Both handled the assignment efficiently and were non controversial.

TJ Kavitha has also worked with additional chief secretary to CM Shikhar Agrawal in his capacity as forest. This will be an added advantage to her. Since she is from forest service, her portfolio of will include forest apart from other departments. Her successful stint in intelligence department may be put to use.
