Madikeri: In a major reshuffle of bureaucracy, the State Government on Monday transferred as many as 27 IAS Officers. As per the Government order, Dr. B.C. Satish, who was serving as Raichur Deputy Commissioner  (DC), has been posted as new Kodagu DC while Charulatha Somal, who was Kodagu DC, has been posted as Raichur DC, in a swapping of posts.
