At that time, his father showed kindness and respect to the then CDO (Chief District Officer) and said, "You should study well and become a CDO, son.

From that time, Aryal started dreaming of becoming a CDO. In the 35 years since he started working in the government following this dream, he has not only become a CDO, but has also been given the opportunity to become the Chief Secretary through Secretary.

He first joined the government service as Naib Subba on January 4, 2046. From branch officer to joint secretary, he did not wait for file promotion.

He worked as an officer in the then Ministry of Tourism and Culture, Election Commission, Ministry of Forests and other agencies.

After making a name for himself as Joint Secretary, he remained in attractive positions for the most part, achieving the goal he had set for himself at a young age.

With that, the race for the new chief secretary began. Due to the Maoist-led government at that time, Secretary Ramakrishna Subedi had more chances than Aryal to become the Chief Secretary.

The government led by Pushpa Kamal Dahal Prachanda, without appointing a new chief secretary, gave Gadtaula the responsibility of the Kamu chief secretary. In late June, UML Chairman KP Sharma Oli became prime minister.

After the coalition changed, Aryal was seen as the main contender. But after the new government appointed Gadtoula, who had a short tenure, as chief secretary on July 10, Aryal's chances became stronger.

Aryal, who was the Home Minister, was fourth in the list of secretaries. National Planning Commission Secretary Toyanarayan Gyawali was ranked first, Public Procurement Monitoring Authority Secretary Ramakrishna Subedi was ranked second and Ministry of Women, Children and Senior Citizens Secretary Dinesh Bhattarai was ranked third. However, Aryal, who was ranked fourth, was made chief secretary.
