It is a wrong assumption that IAS/IPS/IRS officers don’t enjoy their life.
They are rather envied by the media, intellectuals and professionals of other fields because they are enjoying their life too much.
I am an engineer from IIT and most of my batch mates are working in corporates, MNCs in India and abroad. Many of them are also entrepreneurs who are running their own companies and earning huge money. Many of them further graduated from IIM and working as CEO of top companies.
However, they have little time to enjoy their wealth because either they are the employees where they are sharing a huge responsibility or heading a company and concerned about the business and competition.
Most of them feel insecure in whichever position they are.
Civil services in India gives you a lifetime security simply by cracking one single examination.
- Your pay, perks and promotions are assured for life.
- You live your life on your own terms and conditions.
- You have all the powers given by the law to run your organization.
- You get opportunity to serve millions of people directly.
- You collect revenue, maintain law and order and contribute to development of your country.
- You make policies for the Government and the country.
A civil servant in India is still the steel frame of India.
Government structure would collapse without them.
The importance of a civil servant far exceeds the importance of the professionals of any other career for the country and for the common man.
