What happened

Union Minister Jitendra Singh confirmed that senior IAS officers view science department postings as 'punishment.' In a world racing toward AI and quantum computing, India's brightest administrators are reportedly terrified that being assigned to 'Innovation' might accidentally force them to think. The government is considering a reward system where officers who move one file per month are given a telescope to look for their lost motivation.
