Ajay Kumar Singh, the Press Secretary to President Droupadi Murmu, has had his tenure extended by one more year, according to a Personnel Ministry order released on Saturday. His term will now last until September 25, 2025.

The Appointments Committee of the Cabinet has sanctioned Singh's extended tenure on a contract basis, effective from September 26, 2024, to September 25, 2025. Singh had initially taken up the role in September 2019 under former President Ram Nath Kovind.
