Its members ruled more than 300 million people[1] in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Burma (then comprising British Raj). They were ultimately responsible for overseeing all government activity in the 250 districts that comprised British India. They were appointed under Section XXXII of the Government of India Act 1858,[2][3] enacted by the Parliament of the United Kingdom.[4]The ICS was headed by the Secretary of State for India, a member of the British cabinet.
