Reply to Mr Abhishek Yadav

Hello Mr Abhishek Yadav,thank you for your visit on the blog...regarding your query,I will reply it sequentially:
[1] you are welcome to join central services for which you need to qualify the examination conducted by UPSC located at New Delhi.
[2] Group A posts includes all the top positions in government of India e.g. IAS,IFS,IPS,IRS,IRTS[railways], IDAS[defence accounts], Indian audit &account services,IES,etc...the pay scale for group A services is equal for all . Thus in monetary terms there is no big difference between IAS,IPS & Central services Group A posts. But there is a difference in job responsibilities and the power. Though as a Group A officer you will handle all the top positions in your respective departments but mobility will be restricted to your parent department e.g. Finance or defence or accounts,etc but in IAS you have great mobility across the departments. But in IAS & IPS you need to serve a particular state [state cadre] for a large chunk of your career but in central Group A services you can take positions to any locations across the country. IPS requires a typical attitude because of its job requirements.
[3] The promotion prospects are good in all the services.
[4] For IES, It is a technical, specialist service. you will serve in a particular field only. The top positions are generally held by civil servant from Group A service...so in whole career you shall have to report to Generalist Group A officer despite the fact that you also belongs to Group A service.
I hope I have replied you satisfactorily. Any further query is welcome...Keep blogging...
