If I want to become an IAS officer, what I can do for my country?
Answer:
For others benefit:
The (IAS) is one of the three All India Services of the Government of India; other two services being the Indian Police Service (IPS) and the Indian Forest Service (IFS). The IAS is the key administrative service of the Government, both in the Central Government as well as in the States. Owing to the system of allotment of permanent State cadres, this Service has lost some of its All India character. During the British period this bureaucratic structure was known as 'Steel frame' of India for its role in influencing and implementing government policies and decisions. However, now as a result of the growth in public representative institutions and democratic decentralization, both in policy-making, planning and actual implementation, the role of IAS is now restricted to policy execution and office bearing, although some feel that the IAS has re-invented itself as a "facilitator", in an economic scenario where the overall role of the State has rapidly diminished. Nevertheless, those dealing with the State consistently hold the view that the power and influence of the IAS in the Indian polity should never be under-estimated.
The precursor of the Indian Administrative Service was the Indian Civil Service(ICS) of the British Raj. ICS officers, known as 'Collectors', were generally held in high regard because of their reputation for being incorruptible and good administrators. However, some of the "nationalist" critics have opined that the ICS was neither Indian, nor Civil and nor a Service.
Upon independence, the new Republic of India accepted the then serving Indian Civil Service officers who chose to stay on rather than leave for the United Kingdom and renamed the service the Indian Administrative Service.
As for you, you can do a lot of things for the upliftment of the needy if you do become an IAS officer.
