The Indian Civil Service is a civil
service and the permanent bureaucracy
from the Government of India.
The civil service is the backbone
of the country's administrative
machinery.
In India's parliamentary
democracy, they are
responsible for
running the administration,
with representatives
(ministers) elected by
the public.
These ministers are
responsible to legislatures
which are elected by the
general public on the
basis of universal adult
suffrage.
Ministers are also indirectly
responsible to the people.
But many of the problems of modern
administration cannot be expected
by ministers to deal with them
personally.
Thus ministers set policies
and civil servants are appointed to
carry out the policies.
Indian Civil Service Role and
Power in Government Service
The executive decision is
implemented by Indian
civil servants.
Civil servants are employees
of the Government of India
rather than the Indian
Parliament.
Civil servants also have certain
traditional and statutory
obligations which to some
extent avoids the use of
the party's political power in
power.
Senior civil servants may be
responsible for clarification of
Parliament.
The civil service does not include
government ministers (who are
appointed at the political level),
members of parliament, legislative
members of the legislative assembly,
the Indian armed forces, non-civil
service police officers and local
government officials.
