The present incumbant Dr.Arvind Virmani is suuper qualified and a reknowned Economist.He has worked under Nobel Laurietes and done his P.HD. from A world famous American University. The IAS bureaucrats feel Inferiority Complex when they face this stalwarts and that is why they resort to these red tapismm. My dear IAS fellows you are no longer the cream of the society as you think to be. The real INTELECTUALS do not join the IAS , they become teachers and Professors.

The IAS is the left overs of British Raj and should have been disbanded long back. Sorry honest cadres! They are impediments to development and at the same time enjoy all the British 'style' perks. Most of them are exploited by the politician bosses and unwittingly become part of the nexus of corruption. They do not want any other cadres to rule over them and they feel that they are the bosses instead of them considering themselves as servants of the society. The result is that no intelligent person is able to survive their writ in Govt circles!
