UPSC increases Civil Services intake from 580 to 965
The Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) has substantially increased the total intake into the Civil Services from 580 in 2009 to 965 in 2010, an increase of 385 seats. Though the total vacancies (965) to be filled through the 2010 Civil Services Examination (CSE) will be meant for all 24 services, including IAS, IFS, IPS, IRS and others, the police services will see a major jump in intake.
In 2008, UPSC had taken 791 candidates, including 120 in IAS, 26 in IFS and 130 in IPS. Since the UPSC notification clearly says that the number of vacancies is liable to alteration, it can easily induct 150 IPS officers through the 2009 CSE.
