He resigned from his position in July of last year. Iyer, a 1981-batch IAS officer of the Uttar Pradesh cadre and a well-known sanitation specialist, will take over as CEO of Niti Aayog after Amitabh Kant retires on June 30 for two years or until further orders, whichever comes first, according to the order.
