The decision was taken at a national level meeting at New Delhi on Saturday evening, Indian media reported on Sunday.
Vikram Doraiswami, a 1992 batch IFS officer, is currently the Additional Secretary In-charge of International Organisations and Summits at the Indian foreign ministry. Previously, he headed the ministry’s Bangladesh and Myanmar affairs desk. He also served as the Indian ambassador to South Korea.
