Greetings to all civil servants on Civil Services Day. This is an occasion to further strengthen the resolve to work towards good governance and nation building. From the grassroots to policy-making, the efforts of civil servants touch countless lives and contribute to India’s progress. May our civil servants continue to serve with excellence, compassion and innovation, upholding the highest standards of duty.

राष्ट्रसेवा ही ‘विकसित भारत’ की नींव है। सिविल सेवा दिवस के गौरवशाली अवसर पर आइए, अंतिम पंक्ति में खड़े व्यक्ति को विकास की मुख्यधारा से जोड़कर सशक्त, समृद्ध एवं संवेदनशील भारतवर्ष के निर्माण का संकल्प दोहराएं। शीलं परहितासक्तिः अनुत्सेकः क्षमा धृतिः। अलोभश्चेति विद्यायाः परिपाकोञ्चलं फलम्॥

The IAS Association strongly deprecates such personal attacks unconnected with the discharge of official duties. We stand for the dignity and integrity in public service.
