Mr. Jagadeesha was the Managing Director of Rajiv Gandhi Rural Housing Corporation Ltd., Bengaluru, before his July 21 transfer. Even though he was supposed to take charge last week, the out-going DC A B Ibrahim, who met with an accident on July 23, had requested postponement.

Zilla Panchayat CEO Sreevidya formally handed over the charge to Mr Jagadeesha in the absence of Mr Ibrahim, who on Monday took charge as the Commissioner for Transport and Road Safety in Bengaluru.

Born in 1978, Mr. Jagadeesha has a Master's Degree in Genetics and holds a Doctoral Degree in Agriculture. The 38-year-old 2005 batch Indian Administrative Service officer has served as the Deputy Commissioner of Kalaburgi district in the past. More details are awaited.
