“Director (Technical), NTPC, A K Jha has taken the additional charge of the post of the Chairman & Managing Director, NTPC, from September 1, 2015,” NTPC said in a statement. <\/p>\n

A search committee headed by Power Secretary P K Pujari is currently looking for a full-time CMD for NTPC. <\/p>\n
The committee will send the list of short-listed candidates to the Appointments Committee of the Cabinet for a final call. <\/p>\n
