Answer:
Recruitment to All-India Services is made by the Union Public Service Commission on the basis of a competitive examination supplemented by a viva-voce test. Only a university graduate of Art, Science or holding equivalent qualifications can appear in such examinations. The written examination is in-fact of a standard higher than that of graduation.
Prior to June, 1979 examination the syllabus for the IAS examination consisted of three compulsory papers viz. essay, general English and general knowledge, each carrying a maximum of 150 marks. Out of a number of optional papers, only three papers of 600 marks were to be offered by all services except the IPS for which only two papers of 400 marks were to be offered.
The candidates who competed for the IAS and IFS had to offer two additional subjects out of another list of subjects carrying 200 marks each. Those candidates who qualified in the written test, were called for interview which carried 400 marks for IAS and IFS and 300 marks for other examinations. In the initial stages passing the viva was indispensable.
