Birendra Kumar Tiwari has been selected as the Director-in-charge of Bokaro Steel Plant (BSL) at a Public Enterprises Selection Board (PESB) meeting held on January 31, 2024. Currently serving as the Executive Director at BSL, Tiwari will assume the role of Director-in-charge upon receiving vigilance clearances and approval from the Appointments Committee of the Cabinet.
The selection of Tiwari followed an interview process that involved 12 officers. This appointment comes after an eight-month vacancy in the position, which arose due to the elevation of the former incumbent, Amarendu Prakash, to the role of SAIL Chairman. Tiwari’s extensive experience and current role as Executive Director at BSL position him well to take on the responsibilities of leading Bokaro Steel Plant.
