    India

    As with other countries following the


    Westminster parliamentary system of
    government, the IAS is a part of the permanent
    bureaucracy of the nation,[5] and is an
    inseparable part of the executive of the
    Government of India. As such, the bureaucracy
    remains politically neutral and guarantees
    administrative continuity to the ruling party or
    coalition.[5]

    Upon confirmation of service, an IAS officer


    serves a probationary period as a sub-
    divisional magistrate. Completion of this
    probation is followed by an executive
    administrative role in a district as a district
    magistrate and collector which lasts several
    years. After this tenure, an officer may be
    promoted to head a whole state administrative
    division, as a divisional commissioner.

    On attaining the higher scales of the pay


    matrix, IAS officers may lead government
    departments or ministries. In these roles, IAS
    officers represent the country at the
    international level in bilateral and multilateral
    negotiations. If serving on a deputation, they
    may be employed in intergovernmental
    organisations such as the World Bank, the
    International Monetary Fund, the Asian
    Development Bank, the Asian Infrastructure
    Investment Bank, or the United Nations, or its
    agencies. IAS officers are also involved in the
    conduct of elections in India as mandated by
    the Election Commission of India.
