Mumbai: After being without a sheriff for two years, Mumbai has a new incumbent in the p o s t — I n d u S h a h a n i , principal of HR College of Commerce.
After the last sheriff ’s tenure ended, the government was unable to find a suitable candidate, drawing criticism from several quarters.
The sheriff ’s post, though titular, saw hectic lobbying for it. The prime contenders were banker K D Vora, chairman of Kapole Cooperative Bank, and R N Singh, owner of a security firm who enjoys the backing of former minister Kripa Shankar Singh. The CM eventually handpicked Shahani for the post in view of her contribution to the cause of education.
Shahani has been in the field of education for 33 years. Principal of HR College for the last seven years, she was vice-principal before that. She is a vice-president of the International Baccalaureate Organisation and a member of Mumbai University’s academic council.
Shahani told TOI, “I will be able to speak on my plans for Mumbai only after I am sworn in.’’
