Consider the following statements regarding All India Services established as per the provision of Article 312.
(i) All India Services are created consequent upon a resolution of Council of States declaring that it is necessary and expedient in the national interest to create an All India Service.
(ii) The Parliament may provide for the creation of new All India Service by making a law as per the resolution of the council of states.
(iii) The Supreme Court has also directed the Government of India to take steps for setting up an All India Judicial Service.
(iv) All the services proposed to be established under the All India Service (Amendment) Act, 1963 have been established.
Select the correct answer from the codes given below :
Answer: B
Statements (i), (ii) and (iii) are correct, so the answer is (i), (ii), (iii), option B.
Under Article 312 the Council of States (Rajya Sabha) must pass a resolution, supported by two-thirds of the members present and voting, declaring that it is necessary or expedient in the national interest to create an All India Service. Parliament may then create it by law. The Supreme Court has asked the Government to take steps to set up an All India Judicial Service.
Statement (iv) is false: not all the services proposed under the All India Services (Amendment) Act, 1963 have been established, so options C and D are wrong. Option A leaves out (iii).
