New foreign secretary S Jaishankar assumed charge replacing Sujatha Singh whose tenure was abruptly curtailed. It is learnt that Jaishankar was frontrunner to become foreign secretary in 2013, and was a personal choice of former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. However, Manmohan could not have his way as Sonia Gandhi had the last word with Sujatha Singh's appointment.
