Subodh Yadav is
one of the most upright, honest and citizen friendly administrators of
Karnataka. He is a 1999 batch IAS officer of Karnataka cadre. You will seldom
find an officer who has such a long career without any blot and, more
importantly, who is deeply loved by people wherever he had worked.

Profile of Subodh Yadav
Suboth Yadav was
born on 5th August, 1972 in UP in a humble family. He was always a
bright student throughout his schooling. Once done with schooling from his
local government school, he prepared for Engineering and got admission in IIT,
Roorkey – at that time, it was not an IIT, though.
He has done B.
Tech in Mechanical and then went for M. Tech. He worked in few companies before
deciding to go for UPSC Civil Services Examination. Subodh cracked Civil Services
in his first attempt and got IAS with Karnataka cadre. Since then, he is
constantly in news – for all good reasons.
Subodh Yadav was
transferred for many times. In fact, he was not allowed to work at one position
for more than one year. IAS officers got transferred and majority of them are
for political reasons. But, transfer of Subodh always makes news because of
severe protests by locals. When he was prematurely transferred from the post of
DC of Dakshinna Kannada, locals protested violently. However, politicians never
learned any lessons.
It should also
be noted that a honest officer has been treated in the same manner by both
Congress and the BJP Governments of Karnataka.
Only recently,
when he was transferred out of BBMP, residents of Bangalore have started to
protest. Actually, Subodh was honestly fighting a lone battle against turning
Bangalore in a garbage city. He was working round the clock to make proper
solid waste management. Some of his honest initiatives were creating problems
for corrupt Congress politicians and contractors. The result was another
transfer. This time he was made Secretary of KPCC. The Government thought that
giving him a good position with this transfer will keep people calm. But, that
is not the case and lots of petitions are being filed against this order.
Family of Subodh Yadav
Subodh is
married and has two children. He is living in Bangalore with his wife and
children.
