RAW chief Rajinder Khanna to hold charge of DG Security

RAW chief Rajinder Khanna was tonight given charge of Director General (Security) which looks after the aviation wing and special forces within the organisation.
The competent authority has approved that Khanna, a 1978 batch officer of Research and Analysis Service (RAS), will also hold charge concurrently as Director General (Security), an order issued late tonight said.
The government's move to appoint him as DG (Security) may be seen as a surprise as the Aviation Research Centre (ARC) is being headed by his batchmate Arvind Saxena. This means Saxena will now have to report Khanna.
The ARC carries out aerial surveillance of the borders using its unmanned aerial vehicles and other flying machines including MIGs and helicopters. It also has the responsibility with IAF to transport Special Frontier Force (SFF) commandos.

DG (Security) is responsible for the Office of Special Operations, intelligence collected from different countries, electronic, technical section and general administration.
