NEW DELHI: Chief minister Arvind Kejriwal's wife Sunita has taken voluntary retirement from the Indian Revenue Service (IRS), after serving for nearly 22 years in the income tax department.
Sunita, last posted as Commissioner of I-T in the Income Tax Appellate Tribunal (ITAT) in Delhi, had sought VRS earlier this year and an official order has now been issued by the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT), the cadre controlling authority of the department, officials said.
"She will be able to enjoy her pension benefits as she has served over 20 years in service," a senior official said.
