UPSC Topper Career:-


A Kerala Cadre Officer since 1991 Narayanaswamy has been punished for exposing corruption on several occasions and has held a number of positions. Early in his career, he launched an anti-corruption drive that resulted in 30 transfers in 32 years, as well as condemnation from political superiors and popular praise. As managing director of MarketFed, Narayanaswamy was compelled to take a leave of absence and assist younger staff.

In his capacity as Thrissur's district collector, he changed the town's appearance by paving five roads, including the Pattalom and Inner Ring roads, all by himself. A real estate developer requested permission to fill a big paddy farm, but Narayanaswamy declined, citing the possibility of the waste from a nearby government hospital flooding over fifty surrounding impoverished village homes.

Kerala Public Works Minister T. U. Kuruvilla's son and daughter had offered a land deal; following a probe, Kuruvilla was compelled to retire. Narayanaswamy looked into the matter in 2007.Kuruvilla's offspring had embezzled ₹65 million from an NRI entrepreneur by guaranteeing to sell him allegedly encroaching land. After the deal collapsed, the businessman went public while Kuruvilla insisted on his innocence. After surveying the land, Idukki District Collector Narayanaswamy found that a large portion of it was government land, which may have violated the Benami Transactions (Prohibition) Act of 1988. As a result, Kuruvilla resigned.

Appointed head of the Coconut Development Board in August 2018, he found wrongdoing involving the CDB's Bangalore regional director and technical officer. Following an investigation, both were suspended in light of Narayanaswamy's conclusions. After being moved on March 7, 2019, he proceeded to the Central Administrative Tribunal, where his case is currently ongoing.
