Answer:
It is amazing that I have finally found someone else whose has been harboring such an idea. Many aspirants are driven by a variety of motivations ranging from powerful social existence to all the 'upar ki kamai' that's supposed to shower upon you when you become a civil servant. But I guess there are only a few who actually give credence to the fact that ultimately an IAS officer is supposed to be a 'civil servant'. My sole motivation in deciding to prepare for civil services entrance (for which I plan to quit my job next June when the coaching season starts) is to set right things that have always seemed wrong to me. I have always been fascinated by the impact that a person like a DM has on the way things function in her/his district. I certainly understand that the idealist in me could be disillusioned if I actually get to become an IAS officer but I still believe that a person of moral fiber if given sufficient power can lighten up the lives of many. There will obviously be cynics who would advise you to join an NGO instead (as if the society has outsourced all the do-good responsibilities to the NGOs and the policymakers, facilitators and implementors have no role to play in adding value to the society). But what do these cynics know about people who actually want to help people and who derive immense satisfaction from impacting the lives of others in a positive way. Armstrong Pame () is one among such civil servants who have justified their profession. There will obviously be people who will misunderstand and/or doubt your motivations because they are governed by their own narrow mindsets which make them believe that altruism is just a bookish term which they read in their primary school moral science textbooks. These people will always be doubtful of sincere motives because they themselves never harbored any. My sincere suggestion is that you simply ignore such people and do what you actually believe in.
