<P>Its members ruled more than 300 million people<SUP id="cite_ref-India_Attitude_1-0" class="reference"><A href="#cite_note-India_Attitude-1">[1]</A></SUP> in <A href="/wiki/India" title="India">India</A>, <A href="/wiki/Pakistan" title="Pakistan">Pakistan</A>, <A href="/wiki/Bangladesh" title="Bangladesh">Bangladesh</A> and <A href="/wiki/Burma" class="mw-redirect" title="Burma">Burma</A> (then comprising <A href="/wiki/British_Raj" title="British Raj">British Raj</A>). 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 <A href="/wiki/Government_of_India_Act_1858" title="Government of India Act 1858">Government of India Act 1858</A>,<SUP id="cite_ref-ICS_History_2-0" class="reference"><A href="#cite_note-ICS_History-2">[2]</A></SUP><SUP id="cite_ref-ICS_Administer_3-0" class="reference"><A href="#cite_note-ICS_Administer-3">[3]</A></SUP> enacted by the <A href="/wiki/Parliament_of_the_United_Kingdom" title="Parliament of the United Kingdom">Parliament of the United Kingdom</A>.<SUP id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><A href="#cite_note-4">[4]</A></SUP> The ICS was headed by the <A href="/wiki/Secretary_of_State_for_India" title="Secretary of State for India">Secretary of State for India</A>, a member of the British cabinet.</P>
<P>At first almost all the top thousand members of the ICS, known as "Civilians", were British, and had been educated in the best British schools. By 1905, five per cent were from Bengal. In 1947 there were 322 Indians and 688 British members; most of the latter left at the time of <A href="/wiki/Partition_of_India" title="Partition of India">partition</A> and independence.<SUP id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><A href="#cite_note-5">[5]</A></SUP></P>
<P>Until the 1930s the Indians in the service were very few and were not given high posts by the British.<SUP id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><A href="#cite_note-6">[6]</A></SUP> Wainwright notes that by the mid-1880s, "the basis of racial discrimination in the sub-continent had solidified".<SUP id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><A href="#cite_note-7">[7]</A></SUP></P>
<P>At the time of the birth of India and Pakistan in 1947, the outgoing Government of India's ICS was divided between <A href="/wiki/Dominion_of_India" title="Dominion of India">India</A> and <A href="/wiki/Dominion_of_Pakistan" title="Dominion of Pakistan">Pakistan</A>.<SUP id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><A href="#cite_note-8">[a]</A></SUP> Although these are now organised differently, the contemporary <A href="/wiki/Civil_Services_of_India" title="Civil Services of India">Civil Services of India</A>, the <A href="/wiki/Central_Superior_Services_of_Pakistan" class="mw-redirect" title="Central Superior Services of Pakistan">Central Superior Services of Pakistan</A>, <A href="/wiki/Bangladesh_Civil_Service" title="Bangladesh Civil Service">Bangladesh Civil Service</A> and Myanmar Civil Service are all descended from the old Indian Civil Service.</P>
<P>Historians often rate the ICS, together with the railway system, the legal system, and the <A href="/wiki/British_Indian_army" class="mw-redirect" title="British Indian army">Indian Army</A>, as among the most important legacies of British rule in India.<SUP id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><A href="#cite_note-9">[8]</A></SUP></P>

<P>Prior to the First World War, 95% of ICS officers were Europeans; after the war, the British government faced growing difficulties in recruiting British candidates to the service.

<P>The finances of India under British rule depended largely on land taxes, and these became problematic in the 1930s. Epstein argues that after 1919 it became harder and harder to collect the land revenue. The suppression of civil disobedience by the British after 1934 temporarily increased the power of the revenue agents, but after 1937 they were forced by the new Congress-controlled provincial governments to hand back confiscated land. The outbreak of the <A href="/wiki/World_War_II" title="World War II">Second World War</A> strengthened them again, but in the face of the <A href="/wiki/Quit_India_movement" class="mw-redirect" title="Quit India movement">Quit India movement</A> the revenue collectors had to rely on military force, and by 1946–47 direct British control was rapidly disappearing in much of the countryside.<SUP id="cite_ref-28" class="reference"><A href="#cite_note-28">[24]</A></SUP></P>
<P>The outbreak of war in 1939 had immediate consequences for recruitment to the ICS. The examinations in London were suspended after that year's batch (12 British and eight Indian examinees) had qualified. In 1940 and 1941, 12 and four British candidates, respectively, were nominated to the ICS; the following year, the final London-nominated ICS candidates, both of whom were Indian, entered the service. Examinations continued to be held in Delhi for Indian candidates until 1943, when the last seven ICS officers (seven examinees, two nominated) joined. By this time, the British government felt it could no longer rely unambiguously on the complete loyalty of its Indian officers. During the period of the <A href="/wiki/Interim_Government_of_India" title="Interim Government of India">Interim Government of India</A> (1946-1947), a few British candidates were given emergency appointments in the ICS, though ultimately none of them ever served in India.<SUP id="cite_ref-Potter_ICS_26-5" class="reference"><A href="#cite_note-Potter_ICS-26">[22]</A></SUP></P>

<P>At the time of the partition of India and departure of the British, in 1947, the Indian Civil Service was divided between the new <A href="/wiki/Dominion" title="Dominion">Dominions</A> of <A href="/wiki/Dominion_of_India" title="Dominion of India">India</A> and <A href="/wiki/Dominion_of_Pakistan" title="Dominion of Pakistan">Pakistan</A>. The part which went to India was named the <A href="/wiki/Indian_Administrative_Service" title="Indian Administrative Service">Indian Administrative Service</A> (IAS), while the part that went to Pakistan was named the "<A href="/wiki/Central_Superior_Services_of_Pakistan" class="mw-redirect" title="Central Superior Services of Pakistan">Civil Service of Pakistan</A>" (CSP). In 1947, there were 980 ICS officers. 468 were Europeans, 352 Hindus, 101 Muslims, two depressed classes/Scheduled Castes, five domiciled Europeans and Anglo-Indians, 25 Indian Christians, 13 Parsis, 10 Sikhs and four other communities.<SUP id="cite_ref-ICS_HT_History_20-3" class="reference"><A href="#cite_note-ICS_HT_History-20">[18]</A></SUP> Most European officers left India at Partition, while many Hindus and Muslims went to India and Pakistan respectively. This sudden loss of officer cadre caused major challenges in administering the nascent states.</P>
<P>Despite offers from the new Indian and Pakistani governments, virtually all of the European former ICS officers left following partition, with the majority of those who did not opt for retirement continuing their careers either in the British Home Civil Service or in another British colonial civil service.<SUP id="cite_ref-29" class="reference"><A href="#cite_note-29">[25]</A></SUP> A few British ex-ICS officers stayed on, notably those who had selected the "judicial side" of the ICS. The last British former ICS officer still serving in the subcontinent, Justice Donald Falshaw (ICS 1928), retired as Chief Justice of the Punjab High Court (now the <A href="/wiki/Punjab_and_Haryana_High_Court" title="Punjab and Haryana High Court">Punjab and Haryana High Court</A>) in 1966,<SUP id="cite_ref-Becoming_Indian_30-0" class="reference"><A href="#cite_note-Becoming_Indian-30">[26]</A></SUP> receiving a knighthood in the British <A href="/wiki/1967_New_Year_Honours" title="1967 New Year Honours">1967 New Year Honours</A> upon his return to England. Justice William Broome (ICS 1932), a district and sessions judge at the time of Independence in 1947, remained in Indian government service as a judge. Having married an Indian, Swarup Kumari Gaur, in 1937, with whom he raised a family, he eventually renounced his British citizenship in 1958 and became an Indian citizen with the personal intervention of Prime Minister <A href="/wiki/Jawaharlal_Nehru" title="Jawaharlal Nehru">Jawaharlal Nehru</A>, himself a former barrister who regarded Broome as a distinguished jurist and as "much as Indian as anybody can be who is not born in India." Upon his retirement on 18 March 1972 from the <A href="/wiki/Allahabad_High_Court" title="Allahabad High Court">Allahabad High Court</A> as its seniormost <A href="/wiki/Puisne_judge" title="Puisne judge">puisne judge</A>, Broome was the last former ICS officer of European origin serving in India.<SUP id="cite_ref-Becoming_Indian_30-1" class="reference"><A href="#cite_note-Becoming_Indian-30">[26]</A></SUP></P>

<P>Dewey has commented that "in their heyday they [Indian Civil Service officers] were mostly run by Englishmen with a few notable sons of Hindus and even a fewer Muslims were the most powerful officials in the Empire, if not the world. A tiny cadre, a little over a thousand strong, ruled more than 300 million Indians. Each Civilian had an average 300,000 subjects, and each Civilian penetrated every corner of his subjects' lives, because the Indian Civil Service directed all the activities of the Anglo-Indian state."<SUP id="cite_ref-33" class="reference"><A href="#cite_note-33">[29]</A></SUP></P>
<P>The ICS had responsibility for maintaining law and order, and often were at loggerheads with the freedom fighters during the Independence movement. <A href="/wiki/Jawaharlal_Nehru" title="Jawaharlal Nehru">Jawaharlal Nehru</A> often ridiculed the ICS for its support of British policies. He noted that someone had once defined the Indian Civil Service, "with which we are unfortunately still afflicted in this country, as neither Indian, nor civil, nor a service".<SUP id="cite_ref-34" class="reference"><A href="#cite_note-34">[30]</A></SUP></P>
<P>As Prime Minister, Nehru retained the organisation and its top people, albeit with a change of title to the "Indian Administrative Service". It continued its main roles. Nehru appointed long-time ICS officials <A href="/wiki/Chintaman_Deshmukh" class="mw-redirect" title="Chintaman Deshmukh">Chintaman Deshmukh</A> as his Finance Minister, and <A href="/wiki/K._P._S._Menon_(senior)" title="K.
